Eddy also required the inclusion of "Christian Science" in the paper's name, over initial opposition by some of her advisors who thought the religious reference might repel a secular audience.

Beginning in August 2006, the Christian Science Monitor is publishing an 11-part account of Carroll's kidnapping and subsequent release, with first-person reporting from Carroll and others involved.

 Mary Baker Eddy and Christian Science Monitor
Christian Science was discovered in 1866 by Mary Baker Eddy, who established the First Church of Christ, Scientist in Boston (also known as The Mother Church) in 1892, the Christian Science Publishing Society (the publishing arm of the church) in 1898, and the daily international newspaper.
The Christian Science Journal, a monthly religious magazine and "the official organ of the First Church of Christ, Scientist", was started in 1883; The Christian Science Sentinel, a weekly religious magazine, was started in 1898; Der Herold der Christian Science, the first of a number of foreign language religious magazines, was started in 1903.
Spreading Science "undivided" [a reference to Eddy's original editorial statement] implies bringing to all parts of human experience the clarifying effect of truth; it implies furthering the intellectual, moral, and spiritual understanding which is vital to the living of universal brotherhood.
