I agree with Mike. There are too many people wanting to get into spiritual discussions and being misinformed or making assumptions…I’ve pretty much stopped participating in these conversations all together. Thanks for being something to replace the chatter!

Interesting. It’s very refreshing to read authentic spiritual exploration rather than denominational drivel and evangelical silliness. I was particularly struck by the mention of “shoddy scholarship.” I am a Christan seminary student who is appalled at some of the willfully misinformed prattle that passes for theological dialogue. I often feel as though I’m having discussions with Oprah’s audience.

Anyway, keep it up. Good stuff.
Mike

J Lee, thank you for pointing out my misstatement. I meant to say “Calvin saw those who attacked child baptism as evil.” (Calvin makes this statement in the Institutes, Book IV, Chapter XVI, section 32.)

“Calvin saw those who advocated child baptism as evil”
On the contrary, Calvin was in favour of infant baptism; it was he who launched a program of extermination of the Anabaptists who believed that one should be baptised upon making an informed decision in regard to following Christ. As a matter of fact, many of Calvin’s opponents were executed by drowning which was deemed a fitting death given their views on beleivers’ baptism by immersion.

I enjoyed this thank you for going on a limb to touch a controversial topic. A tool is a tool. Nazis used hammers therefore all people who use use hammers are nazis? this is how i correlate the logic that is presented by the right wing christians. Some of these christian groups (and other sects of abrahamic religion)are verging on Hitler like activities in that they are influencing and calling on the masses to oppress and im sure for a lot of them if they had it their way start new witch trials. When “The Conspiracy” started to become big they jumped on the opportunity to make claim that anyone that wasn’t one of them was evil and under the influence of satan. Well i will say i am speaking as a canadian so most of the influence i witness is coming out of america. Freemasonry is a neutral organization, that people who do bad things meet their and possibly conspire against others is an issue regarding the morality of the individual. This is the double edged sword so called freedom, which is spouted misleadingly consistently by the media and groups of people who just dont get it.

Your comments about Est, werner erhard and therefore indirectly landmark education are humorous. Erhard would think himself the messiah.

The irony of the nazi issue is that a lot of indias spirituality that is not buddhist derives from the sanskrit era of inda. Sanskrit and the people who spoke it as some legends would have it was a blend of the aryan people and the people who lived in india. So when people lump theosophy, occultism, spirituality, human potential movement and so on with nazi-ism what they are really doing is re-affirming what hitler wanted, the world to believe that his group was the aryan people. As for why that is important to hitler and the magical order he joined is a long conversation, as for the validity, i dont know enough to get into and make it clear and precise.
