The Gospel of Good Health (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Gospel of Good HealthI wish to make this distinction clear at the outset because in all our communities there are groups of religiously disposed people who make physical healing the central object oftheir interest. They talk about it, they think about it, they write about it, incessantly. In their published statements they deny the very existence of disease, but with a curious incon sistency they at once proceed to spend their main strength in a heroic effort to heal that non-existent illness without the use of drugs. In doing this they virtually narrow down their religious interest to the business of raising leaves. When the day of judgment comes it is to be feared that many of them will have nothing but leaves to show, for the reason that they have been slighting the weightier matters of useful and unselfish service in their zeal to demonstrate their ability to keep these perishable bodies in good trim. To do this is to unduly exalt that which is incidental and make it central.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
