Evidently, it was the overriding need for bringing mankind and its Science into a cohesive unity, that had caused Mary Baker Eddy to devote such great attention and effort to establishing the Christian Science Monitor.
One of the first questions that needs to be addressed in respect of the Christian Science Monitor, is: Why has it failed to fulfill its mission? Was Mary Baker Eddy mistaken in founding it? Where her hopes set too high? Was its foundation too weak? No! The reason was simply that the foundation had not even been recognized to exist until the 1940s when John Doorly of England had made the first faint discovery of a scientific structure underlying Mary Baker Eddy's work. Except he had discovered far too little of it, for it to be of any practical value. It would take another forty years until the breakthroughs would be made, which were made.
What came to light by this discovery laid the foundation for another fifteen years of work, which was needed to bring Mary Baker Eddy's outlined scientific development structure to light. The details were clearly recognized when the final discovery was made. Also the architecture was discerned at that time by way of the many direct references that Mary Baker Eddy had provided. But what was to be the meaning of it all? What is the Science underlying it? Those questions had to be answered before anything could be profitably published.
Some questions are still being answered. The details are exceedingly complex. The author's friend has contributed greatly towards this unfolding. In has been a great privilege to have been allowed to share the discoveries that were made. The many years of work that followed were rich in further discoveries, many of which are shared in Volume 3 of this book series. Still, the extensive work that is presented in Volume 3 turned out to be just a starting point. As the work progressed the challenge that Mary Baker Eddy had symbolically created with the Christian Science Monitor, demanded a response that would train the focus of the exploration onto to public arena, the political world which the Christian Science Monitor had been designed to address. This was attempted in Volume 4 in a primitive fashion, in the way the early discovery process had unfolded. Except, this too, opened up too many questions about fundamental principles, so that the focus had to be raised again in such a manner that the entire social and political sphere could be understood by the same principles that were represented by Mary Baker Eddy's structure for scientific development. This is the focus in this volume, Volume 5.
Although the Christian Science Monitor had failed to fulfill its assigned task, as the supporting foundation had remained hidden in obscurity, one would expect some progress none-the-less being made in this direction. Indeed, this kind of work is already moving forward by a different venue and by the efforts of a group of people form a totally different background. Many of the principles that pertain to Mary Baker Eddy's structure for scientific development are already vigorously promoted by the Lyndon LaRouche organization. Many are focused on as isolated elements that are found to be of great value. Only the recognition of the structural interrelationship is yet to appear in this arena. This development, of course, has left the Christian Science Monitor far behind in this type of scientific exploration and relating the truth to broader dimension of humanity.
Indeed, one can assume that the Christian Science Monitor may have been symbolic as an example for a type of instrument that is needed to advance the universal recognition of the truth about man and man's nature and capability, and the science that drives their development. One must assume that what rests on universal principle, that Mary Baker Eddy had merely recognized, but not invented, would inevitably be recognized by alert individuals and eventually unite the whole human scene.
