Though Templeton honors all religion, he reserves his strongest praise for two of the most blatantly anti-Christian cults: The Unity School of Christianity and The Church of Religious Science [1]. He commends them for “progress” in religion because “as mind advances, the old forms [of religion] die.” He writes:
“The doctrinal formulations of Christianity have changed and will change from age to age…. Christians think God appeared in Jesus of Nazareth two thousand years ago for our salvation [2] and education. But we should not take it to mean that…progress stopped…that Jesus was the end of change…. To say that God cannot reveal Himself again in a decisive way [through other Messiahs]…seems sacrilegious….”
