Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

As the movie 'John Carter' arrives in theaters, here are 11 of the most well-known adaptations of other Edgar Rice Burroughs books.
The 1984 film "Greystroke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes" featured actor Christopher Lambert in the title role and Andie MacDowell in her first film role as Jane, with Ian Holm playing the role of Philippe D'Arnot. The movie was nominated for three Oscars, including a Best Supporting Actor nod for actor Ralph Richardson in the part of the Earl of Greystroke, Tarzan's grandfather. Actress Glenn Close dubbed MacDowell's dialogue because of MacDowell's Southern accent.
