According to the article below, Voegelin was NOT a Christian, and Voegelin vehemently disagreed with ALL (religious) doctrines and ideologists because ALL would lead to Gnosticism.<br /><br />Hesp, I realize that this may be quite difficult for you to hear, but (if the article is correct), then Voegelin's recent popularity and ascendency is part and parcel of the PC MC dismantling of the white Christian West.<br /><br />The act of believing and saying that ALL (religious) doctrine and ideologists are evil simply leads to the SAME false equivalency among peoples and cultures as PC MC which says that all peoples and cultures are good.<br /><br />The lack of (religious) doctrine and ideologists is (moral) anarchy - rather than order - which is what we are seeing in the modern irreligious Western world.<br /><br />Furthermore, the moral vacuum will be filled by false religions portrayed as populous political movements. Can anyone seriously think that humanity - in the here and now - is more moral or 'orderly' when worshipping a human Karl Marx than when worshipping a transcendent God?!<br /><br />Voegelin also (studiously) misses the point of how would people and cultures live by (Christian) ethics if those ethics were NOT first conveyed via (religious) doctrine and ideologists?!<br /><br />Rather than simply creating heaven on earth, Christian (religious) doctrine and ideology is meant to make life on earth more bearable for putative victims of powerful people.<br /><br />In any case, if the anti-religious Voegelin misunderstands Christianity and its singular value to humanity, how would I trust that he understands Judaism?!<br /><br />http://www.crisismagazine.com/1990/the-new-gnosticism-the-philosopher-eric-voegelin-finds-an-old-christian-heresy-to-be-very-much-aliveEggheadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29566846.post-67708250317362604992016-06-26T01:50:07.267-07:002016-06-26T01:50:07.267-07:00No time today to re-examine Schlussel's site, ...No time today to re-examine Schlussel's site, but here is what I said on May 1, 2015, and I rather doubt that anything has changed:<br /><br />http://hesperado.blogspot.com/2015/05/imbroglio-at-jihad-watch-comments.html?m=1<br /><br />Summary:<br /><br />Schlussel's lens is Judaism: How does everyone and everything affect (the plight and persecution, that's a given of) Jews?<br /><br />Schlussel's morality seems to be: 'Everyone should argue for, and everything should occur for the benefit of Jews - OR ELSE.'Eggheadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29566846.post-56210182878872432722016-06-25T23:59:25.860-07:002016-06-25T23:59:25.860-07:00typo, sorry: C-K-s words, not minetypo, sorry: C-K-s words, not mineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29566846.post-52440620221114077582016-06-25T23:57:08.525-07:002016-06-25T23:57:08.525-07:00Perhaps you should take heart from history and the...Perhaps you should take heart from history and the fact that Jews have been deported from European countries at least 109 times. The Jews have been, historically, the people who literally opened the gates of European cities to Moslem invaders, worked with them and, even when Islam was not yet present or a palpable threat, were openly conducting themselves in ways which were destructive to the Christian majority. They still do and in Europe have been one of the most vociferous forces in furthering the 'multicultural,' 'multiracial', miscegination agenda, helped enormously by the fact that the American 'neo-cons' in successive American governments, and with the Jewish lobby (second largest next to NRA), have pushed to implement foreign policy which, in destabilising the Middle East quite deliberately, has contributed to the invasion (not 'refugee flight') of Europe and Great Britain. A great part of understanding the real purpose of the 'counter jihad' is to note what is never said about the history of Judaism, of Jews in their relations with Europeans (except the usual propaganda of the 'virus' of "anti-semitism") and of their goals (Tikkum Olam via the Coudenhove-Kalergi 'vision' of a new "Eurasian Race" of Africans and Asians to replace the Caucasian Race and ruled over by the 'Master Race' --- C-K's words, not min --- of the Jews, due to their presumed 'moral superiority', a scheme that forms the backbone of the European Union and was supported in its beginnings by Jewish financiers).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
