Woke Religion Is Inimical to Civilization

How China's Regime Weaponized an Entire Society to ‘Eradicate’ Falun Gong

By —— Bio and Archives--July 24, 2020

Beijing’s coverup of the coronavirus outbreak, its heavy-handed tactics in Hong Kong, and what some are calling a genocide of the Uyghurs have forced many people to awaken to the chilling realities of the Chinese Communist Party.  But practitioners of Falun Gong have faced this every day, since July 20, 1999, when the Chinese regime banned Falun Gong and sought to “eradicate” the popular spiritual practice.  For the past 21 years, practitioners have been demonized, tortured, and even had their organs forcibly extracted.

In this episode, we sit down with Crystal Chen, a Falun Gong practitioner and torture survivor, and Levi Browde, the executive director of the Falun Dafa Information Center. Their stories and insights offer a window into the threat China’s ruling regime poses to not just Hong Kongers and the Chinese people, but also to the rest of the world.......

 The Movie Chinese Communists Hate the Most?, January 9, 2022  By Janet Levy 

Some films are chilling because their fiction penetrates the agonizing core of reality.  The soon to be released Unsilenced, from award-winning Chinese-Canadian filmmaker Leon Lee, is a prime example.  It brings into sharp focus the oppression unleashed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) on Falun Gong, a movement that emphasizes ethical conduct, qigong exercises, and meditation.  Fearing that Falun Gong would overtake it in popularity, the party has since 1999 been persecuting practitioners with arrest, torture, forced labor, menticide, and execution.  But an underground resistance has established itself, led by ordinary Falun Gong practitioners pushed by extraordinary circumstances into heroic acts.

Chinese Regime Forces Monks and Tibetans to Witness the Demolition of Buddha Statue

By Nicole Hao January 8, 2022

The Chinese regime forced Tibetan monks and Tibetan people to watch the demolition process of a 99-foot tall Buddha statue at Thoesam Gatsel temple in Garzê Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, in December.

The Buddha statue was built after the regime approved the project in 2015, and has special meaning for local Tibetan monks and people.

“For Tibetans, the Buddha statue is more valuable than our own lives,” Kelsang Gyaltsen, representative of the Central Tibetan Administration in Taiwan, told The Epoch Times on Jan. 7. “The Thoesam Gatsel temple is in Luhuo county, which is in a seismic zone together with the neighboring Dawu county. Tibetan people believe that the Buddha statue can protect people from being hurt by earthquakes.”

Gyaltsen criticized the demolition and the regime’s forcing Tibetan monks and residents to watch the process.

“It destroys your [temple’s] properties, blasphemes your gods, and forces you to give up your spiritual beliefs. Ordering people to watch [the demolition]! You can imagine how much mental pressure [the monks and Tibetan residents] suffered during the process,” Gyaltsen said..........To Read More...

Woke Catholicism Is Inimical to Western Civilization Christ provides cleansing through His sacrifice and grace. Wokeism offers only the barrenness of the grave. 

What is wokeism? Is it another political movement, one pushing for equality and social justice in line with Christian faith, or is it something more? Catholics in particular must face and answer this question, as our faith calls us to defend the helpless in the name of Christ. Is woke thinking a duty or a heresy, a friend or an enemy?

Archbishop José Gómez, leader of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, recently stepped forward to answer this question factually and faithfully. Woke thinking, Gomez said, is nothing less than a new religion constructed to challenge and destroy traditional Christian faith. ...............Woke faith is incompatible with Christian faith for very simple reasons. It is atheistic and denies God and Christ. It replaces biblical sin and salvation path with a theology of its own, which offers only constant warfare. Wokeism is also utopian, Gomez said, believing that it can somehow create a kind of “heaven on Earth,” which is not the ultimate hope of any Christian. ..............

Stunningly, Archbishop Gomez may have an ally in Russian President Vladimir Putin. The former KGB agent recently said this to his own people.................Hard as it is to believe, Putin is on the right side of history here and the Biden Administration is not.

Putin warned where this would lead, and the history of Russia under Stalin, China’s Cultural Revolution under Mao, Cambodia under Pol Pot, and Germany under Hitler, prove him right: Wokeism unleashes monsters and ultimately leads to the annihilation of Christianity and other faiths, and to mass murder. The woke faith, remember, denies the humanity of its opponents and has no place for mercy or tolerance of other opinions or beliefs. Where Christ provides cleansing through His sacrifice and grace, wokeism offers only the barrenness of the grave.  

Archbishop Gomez warns the church to see wokeism as a new religion and forcefully reject it................ 

UK’s Chief Rabbi condemns Jewish Fund chief for saying future of Jews in UK in doubt because of Muslim immigration

Pope Francis says ‘religious persecution’ is ‘inhuman,’ ‘unacceptable’ and ‘insane,’ without mentioning Islam

Last month, human rights experts urged “ Pope Francis to speak up for Christian refugees facing persecution from Muslim migrants detained on the Greek island” of Lesbos. The Pope has been an outspoken advocate for the massive influx of Muslim refugees into the West over the past few years, and he still is. He recently “negotiated […]
