    One Russian expressed his bafflement on Obama meeting LGBT groups on the eve of, and I quote, "World War Three". Those bloody Russians love talking about war.

    Perhaps Russia is worried about the slippery slope. They would want to be wanting to get married next.

    Heaven forbid. If Russia had any sense talking about WWIII would be the last thing they'd do. Always talking about how this could be war, that could be war, I really have to wonder about the mentality.

    Give it a chance. Many reputable journalists write for the CSM because it publishes stuff their normal papers are not interested in. The religion (mad as it is) is kept entirely separate.

    Justin McCurry, The Guardian's Japan/Korea correspondent also writes for the CSM (and the Lancet). Here's a recent piece he wrote for them about Fukushima:

    CSM also publishes excellent science articles including stuff on evolution. Here's something about altruism and evolution.

    I never mentioned having any issue with what the thing contained or who works for it.

    I have issue with the 'Christian Science' aspect of it.

    I remember when I lived in Maidstone.Kent and on Sittingbourne Road (opposite the Junction of Queen Anne's Pub) there is a Christian Science Ministry in which the practitioners claim to heal by prayer. They provided this magazine for free and said it regularly contains features on evidence that prayer works and can be used as a healing emthod. And no....not the psychological kind.

    Oh, and this is from the 'CMS About' section. They support the following.

    Meet Rick. A growth appeared on his body, and so he decided to pray about it as he's done throughout his life studying Christian Science. Within days it completely disappeared.

    The Christian Science Monitor is an International Newspaper and does not promote evidence that prayer works in the newspaper. One of the contributors does talk about faith, but other then that the rest of it's content is pretty secular.

    The link you provided is not associated with the newspaper.

    4. If the Monitor's news is secular, why is "Christian Science" in its name?

    It's about honesty and purpose. We do not hide the fact that the Christian Science church has stood behind this publication for more than 100 years. While some might argue that not having those words would give it wider appeal, to remove them would mislead people about the organization that supports the Monitor. Eddy knew this from the outset. She insisted, against strong opposition from some of her advisers and church officers, that the words “Christian Science” should be in the paper’s name.

    7. How would I find out more about the Monitor’s founder and Christian Science?

    For more about Mary Baker Eddy, the pioneering woman who founded the Monitor, see The Mary Baker Eddy Library for the Betterment of Humanity at www.marybakereddylibrary.org.

    Visit www.christianscience.com for information about Christian Science and our publisher, The First Church of Christ, Scientist. Here you can learn more about Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, the premier work by Monitor founder Mary Baker Eddy. You’ll also find articles, discussions, and events showing how people are using spiritual ideas in their daily lives.

    The link I provided is not only supported by the paper but PROMOTED by the paper.

    Her are some articles of the link between prayer and 'evidence':

    Next time, do your own research.

    That's not say that the journalism of some of the reporters is not noteworthy. But I may just stick to the Guardian or any media outlet that doesn't try to sell 'Christian Science'.

    The reason why it is still called the Christian Science Monitor is because of the founder. Most of the stuff promoted in the newspaper is secular, including the science articles.

    Seriously, are you from another planet?

    Didn't you read anything I posted?

    The paper claims to be secular but it isn't. How stupid do you have to be not to see that. Read my posts and links again.

    I don't give a damn if most of the articles are secular, there are a fair few nutty ones in there too.

    I proved you wrong. Admit it or move on.
