In Matthew, we find Jesus prophesying that in the end, nation would war against nation and country against country.
What better message to counteract this truth, by the teaching of false peace. In a world of war, most people will turn to this message. We the people can bring peace.
Al Gore, Oprah, Swartzenegger, Obama, Einstein and others all seem to be falling into line with the principles of this ideology.
Is this the ultimate goal of secularism/buddhism?

Talk about getting false positives.

| The current event about this is that Einstein especially seems to really be falling in line about now. |

I think so. |
From the article:
"The Swedish government has announced plans to clamp down hard on religious education. It will soon become illegal even for private faith schools to teach religious doctrines as if they were true."
So tell me, fiveeagles, will this in any way interfere with an individual's ability to pursue spirituality and have direct experience of God?
Personally, I think it won't, (and in fact will have the opposite effect).
However, the primitive and superstitious rubbish peddled by the self interested earthly businesses that call themselves churches certainly will.
You are an agent of a false prophet. |

Tell us again about the witches, in 2008, and how rock 'n' roll is the tool of the devil. Geez.
Anyone think fiveeagles is playing with a full deck? |

Absolutely it will. Freedom of religion is one of the keys to a strong democracy. Take away our right to be able to express what we believe is truth leads us down the road to communism or even worse nazism.
Take this article for example;
| Quote: |
Accord, which brings together the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, Christian think tank Ekklesia and the British Humanist Association, will launch on Monday as new rules come into place making it legal for voluntary controlled schools to be headed by a person of specific faith and for voluntary aided schools to discriminate against non-teaching staff on the basis of their religion.
The coalition alleges that faith schools discriminate against students and teachers of different faith and that they damage community cohesion.

What right does a secular body have to try and legislate against a religious school? If we allowed the MM2s of the world; they would have all bodies of religion submitting to secularism. Right?
Sweden, one of the most advanced nations of the world, is forcing it's own intolerant laws upon its citizens. What next? Dissent brings you death? |

FiveEagles:
According to the bible, the antichrist is a guy who will deceive the multitudes into worshiping him. But in any discussion of the Dalai Lama that I have heard, there is usually a contingent of people saying that he is a flake. At the very least, people will usually roll their eyes at his Hollywood pandering.
So no, I dont think that the Dalai Lama has anywhere near the approval rating required to be the antichrist. Even if the Rapture were to take place, there would still be a lot of secular cynics left behind who would think that the guy was a joke. |

If people want to form private institutions and teach their kids that witches exist and the world is 6000 years old, hey, fine. If they want to take public dollars, then they can't use public dollars to establish a religion.
It's as simple as that.
Tell us again about the witches. |

Indeed. But the freedom of religion a democracy extends to organisations is sometimes not extended to the individuals within the organisation.
1. We are right. All others are wrong.
2. All members will obey our rules, and believe in everything we tell them or suffer penalties.
3. You may not alter or question the teachings of the church. They are perfect and infallible.
Any religion that incorporates beliefs such as these is no different from the religiously intolerant society. The inquisitions are an example of where that road leads.
A government has as much obligation to protect its children from indoctrination from these religious organisations as it does from communists or nazis
