The star in Christ and Christmas, a symbol of infinity.The star in Christ and Christmas represents the divine Science of metaphysics which began with the dawn of mankind and its civilization, which was manifested in metaphysical healing by Christ Jesus and Mary Baker Eddy, and continues to manifest itself by providing food, resources, and energy according to mankind's needs for all ages to come. Nowhere in Scriptures, and especially in the works of Christ Jesus, are references contained which suggest that mankind is "a cancer on this planet" and must murder large portions of its own species in order to conserve resources. To the contrary. Christ Jesus turned the meager supply of 2 fishes and 5 barley loaves into a resource to provide a meal for 5000.*(John 6:9) And in the final hours after his parting, at the joyfully meeting with his disciples in morning hours by she shores of the Galilean Sea, he told the disciples who had been fishing all night but had caught nothing, to cast the nets "on the right side," which consequently became filled with great fishes, more than could be drawn into the boats. One of Mary Baker Eddy's most frequently quoted statements is, "Divine Love, always has met, and always will meet, every human need." This love does not suggest a need to murder 80% humanity in order to make ends meet, nor does it suggest that meeting the human need is destructive to life and the integrity of the universe, but suggest that each divine idea, of which man is one of the greatest, is complete in itself with the capacity to create its own resources for living without having to take a single iota away from any other system. The so-called natural environment cannot help to be benefitted once this reality becomes understood and becomes the basis for human economy. With the infinite resources of nuclear energy at hand, mankind has the capacity to turn the desserts of this world into a Garden or Eden, to restore what the natural processes of changing climates have destroyed, to protect the ecology of this planet during the natural cycles of the ice-ages, and to make the waste places rich with life. Mankind cannot survive unless it upgrades its existence to a higher platform of creativity that unlocks the health-creating and wealth-creating capacity of its genius, and this not only in the sphere of individual and national existence, but in global terms, uplifting humanity and enriching the universe. Except, for this essential cycle to become effective, mankind needs to enlarge itself to a population density that matches the 'impedance' of the global system, which may require 10-15 billion people. It is a fundamentally accepted reality that in all mechanical, electronic, and chemical systems, the driver and the load impedances must match, or else little work get done and much energy gets wasted in useless cycles of reflections and oscillations that interfere with, rather than promote the desired effect. The human potential must be upgraded out of the riches of its infinite base to match the requirement for a boundless manifest of life on this planet. Mary Baker Eddy's work, Christ and Christmas, traces the progressive unfolding of the influence of the 'star' from its earliest beginning to the present time where it stands as the life-giving power of the 21th century and beyond. The black cross in the final paining in Christ and Christmas is not an aspect of the star's light, but symbolizes those systems of human convention that exist at great distances from the light of reality. The black cross is a modern phenomenon of the oligarchic system that unfolded in the background throughout the ages with ever increasing efforts to obscure the Christ reality, which has reached monumental proportions to-day, to the point that mankind as a whole is put at risk. Never throughout history has the capability assisted to such a dramatic extend, to destroy humanity collectively, as it exists today and is being implemented aggressively. The sixteenth element in Christ and Christmas has no painting associated with it, for the nature of this stage in human unfolding has yet been determined. The page is left blank. A hint is given of what lies above the framework of the last paining, above mankind's crown, - the crown of life, the crown of dominion -, for above it lies the source of the light that it focuses, which source is the 'sun.' Scientific metaphysical healing of disease is found in this light, reflecting man's dominion over the material world and all lower things and systems. However, the next scene could also be one of oblivion where man's natural dominion is evil spoken of, rejected, or denied, where sickness and death become dominant and healing impossible. The title for the last painting that is presented in Christ and Christmas, bear the title, The Way. The title has no punctuation in the original.
