-Caveat Lector- Steve, I see you've moved into phase two of New Age. Are you really so sure that all of the New Age planning wasn't done by the global Nazi types who have been working to move society away from the monotheistic religions?
>From a new text book, copyright 2002, Religions in the Modern World, Chapter: New Age Religion, subheading: New Age in a wide and in a strict sense, subheading Flying Saucers and Utopian Communities. "The immediate roots of the New Age movement may seem surprising at first sight. Shortly after the Second World War, popular curiosity was attracted by unexplained phenommena in the sky referred to as Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO's). In various places in Western Europe and in the US study groups were formed by people who wanted to investigate these phenomena, and some of these groups proceeded to take on 'cultic' characteristics. Typically such groups believed that the USOs were in fact spaceships inhabited by intelligent beings from other planets or other dimensions of outer space. Representing a superior level of cultural, technological and spiritual evolution, they now made their appearance to herald the coming of a New Age. The earth was entering a new evolutionary cycle that would be accompanied by a new and superior kind of consciousness. However since the present cultures of humanity were thoroughly corrupted by materialism, the;y would resist this change. As a result the transition to a new cycle of evolution would necessitate the destruction of the old civilization by violent causes such as earthquakes, floods, diseases and the like, resulting in a global economic, political and social collapse. Those individuals whose consciousness was already in tune would survive the period of cataclysms. In due course they would become the vanguard of the New Age or Age of Aquarius: an age of abundance, bliss and spiritual enlightenment when humanity would once again live in accordance with universal cosmic laws (Spangler 1984). (Note: This spin was to show how New Age thinking came out of Christian esoteric beliefs.) ........... Looking to the future: "As long as the grand narratives of the West fail to regain their hold over the population and no new ones are forthcoming, and as long as Western democratic societies continue to emphasize the supreme virtue of individual freedom, the type of 'self religion' traditionally known as New Age willl remain a force to be reckoned with." The chapter on New Age is 15 tightly packed pages of "spin" for the college age general public. Better information came out of an academic conference in Denmark, resulting in the book "New Age Religion and Globalization." -----Original Message----- From: Conspiracy Theory Research List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Wingate Sent: Monday, July 21, 2003 2:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [CTRL] RE: [CTRL] Global Elite Promoting 'End Times' Myth -Caveat Lector- Jim, The Bible is mindcontrol bullshit created by a group of ETs bent on controlling humans. God is a now dead ET. You are a mind-controlled slob like most of us. Get with the plan and get real. You are currently defined as a chump by the real God, all of us.
