==Nature of List== | |||
{{Christian Science sidebar}} | |||
Like ] today the role the ] played in certain fields, especially entertainment and politics, at one time caused a good deal of attention. Enough so that Bonnie Burke of Brooklyn wrote an article titled "Watergate and Christian Science" in "The Mail." This list can not truly give a sense of what percentage Christian Scientists had in various fields, an actual study of these fields giving percentages would be needed for that, but it can give a small sense of the validity or invalidity of the concept. Or simply be a source for those who wondered who was and wasn't Christian Scientist in history. That said you must cite a credible source to justify any addition. | |||
