Does not Christian Science rely upon prayer through belief in Christ’s words, “Whatever you ask in My name, it shall be granted”?

I am afraid that it requires more belief in Mrs. Eddy than in Christ It relies also far more upon auto-suggestion and self-persuasion than upon prayer. After all, favors must be asked in the Name of Christ, and therefore in conformity with the Will of God. But God expects us to use the natural means He has put at our disposal. His ordinary law for our health is the use of natural remedies and medical aid. It is absurd to say that He provided these things uselessly, and does not intend us to use them. If we deliberately neglect God’s ordinary means we cannot expect Him to help us in some extraordinary way of our own devising.
