		If a Reader in The Mother Church be found at any time inadequate or unworthy, he or she shall be removed from office by a majority vote of the Board of Directors and the consent of the Pastor Emeritus, and the vacancy supplied.
		If at a meeting of this Church a doubt or disagreement shall arise among the members as to the signification of the communications of the Pastor Emeritus to them, before action is taken it shall be the duty of the Clerk to report to her the vexed question and to await her explanation thereof.
		If it be found that the Church funds have not been properly managed, it shall be the duty of the Board of Directors and the Treasurer to be individually responsible for the performance of their several offices satisfactorily, and for the proper distribution of the funds of which they are the custodians.

	'Standing Porter at the Door of Thought': (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Church leadership was named in a spate of lawsuits accusing The Mother Church of responsibility in connection with the deaths of children who died while under Christian Science prayer treatment.
		But because the church's social order cannot be changed to adapt to expectations of the contemporary world, and because threats to its social order are growing in number and complexity, it is difficult to imagine how The Church of Christ, Scientist, can address the worldly concerns which must be mastered for it to survive.
		In the final years of the church's foray into broadcast journalism, two radio reporters were dismissed over a medical story judged to be inconsistent with church theology and a television anchorman was released from his contractual obligation after protesting that the church was manipulating content for theological gain (See Fraser, 1999).

		The church she founded is wholly a church of laypersons with all offices open to men and women.
		The Mother Church serves to rouse the spiritual understanding that brings forth this healing and to ensure that the truth upon which this understanding rests is preserved and made available.
		Given the enormous labor she expended on refining the church's organization, it is absurd to argue--as some opponents of that organization have--that she intended the Mother Church to go out of existence at her death.

		In 1892, the Boston church became known as The First Church of Christ, Scientist, or "The Mother Church." It is run by a self-perpetuating board of directors.
		The form of organisation is prescribed in the church Manual, written by Eddy, the final article of which still declares that no tenet or bylaw may be added, amended, or annulled without her written consent.
		Local churches are designated as branches of The Mother Church; and although each branch is self-governing, its mode of organisation and operation must be consonant with the Manual of The Mother Church.

	The Destiny of The Mother Church - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Destiny of The Mother Church (1991, ISBN 087510231X) is the primary and theologically disputed work of Bliss Knapp, the son of Ira O. and Flavia S. Knapp, students of Mary Baker Eddy.
		Advised in fall 1991 before the book's publication by a six-page letter from church Archivist Lee Johnson of the book's unusual history, a large number of Christian Science branch churches voted not to carry the book or simply declined to order it, though precise figures are difficult to establish.
		The book's publication attracted a fair deal of unwelcome media attention and continued to be held by many members, in spite of the church's defense, to violate Eddy's basic teachings and the Manual of The Mother Church, the church's equivalent of constitutional law.

	The Watchman Expositor: Christian Science Profile
		All other churches are considered branches of the "Mother Church." Instead of preachers, Christian Science uses readers who read prescribed passages from the Bible followed by an interpretive reading from Science and Health.
		A book, The Destiny of the Mother Church, written by a former President of the Mother Church, Bliss Knapp, was published and promoted by the church's board in return for the Knapp family estate bequest of $98 million.
		Though put forward by the official publishing arm of the church, this teaching is considered heresy by many in the church.

		Because of their inexperience in spiritual methods, she wrote the Church Manual to govern The Mother Church.
		These changes appeared to place the branch churches as being secondary to The Mother Church, and thus they gave the Board autonomous control over the entire Christian Science Field.
		The Eighty-ninth edition is the edition followed by the Church, but the Eighty-eighth edition is considered by many to be the Manual she intended to govern the Church.

	Mrs. Eddy's explanation of By-Law
		I beg to inform my beloved members of the Mother Church that the By-law in Article XXVI of its Manual does not require members of benevolent and progressive organizations, such as Free Masons, Odd Fellows, temperance societies, and those of similar cult, to resign this membership.
		Members of the Mother Church shall not be made members of Clubs or organizations, the Free Masons excepted, which exclude either sex or are not named in the Manual of the Mother Church.
		Later in 1904 the wording "not named in the Manual of the Mother Church" was removed from the "Church Organizations Ample" By-Law, but similar wording was reintroduced in the "Promotion of Peace" By-Law in 1908.
