Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, 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.

In the US, fast food can get pretty predictable: Burgers, fries, chicken, and a taco or a fish sandwich, if you’re feeling adventurous. Leave it to our international brethren to show us how to loosen up and live a little. Take a look at ten wacky fast food items from around the world.
Who says you have to eat the chicken in your chicken sandwich in patty form? Not the folks at Burger King in Poland, who had the innovative idea of taking chicken nuggets and making them a sandwich meat. It also comes with a curry sauce, lettuce, and something called “Saltamajonase” (mayonnaise, we think).
Would we eat it? American fast food is woefully lacking in curry sauce, and who doesn’t want an easier chicken sandwich?
