False Gods Quotes

― Anthon St. Maarten

“At times there's something so precise and mathematically chilling about nationalism.

― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Why doesn't the pope convert to Calvinism? Why doesn't the Dalai Lama, convert to Christianity, why doesn't Billy Graham convert to Islam, Why doesn't the Ayatollahs convert to Buddhism, Why isn't Buddhism swept away? Religious leaders know that all religions are equal; they know that no one of them has the monopoly to the knowledge of God. They know that each religion is trying to find the hidden God and that no one religion can claim to have found him beyond doubt. That's why they remain where they are and respect each other.”
― Bangambiki Habyarimana, Pearls Of Eternity

Filter all things through yourself. Accept only that which sits right with your soul.”
― L.M. Browning, Seasons of Contemplation: A Book of Midnight Meditations

― Fakeer Ishavardas

admire".”
― Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor

“In order for a thing or an idea to truly be a false god, people must not only make it an end in itself, they must believe is a worthy and noble thing to live for. Genuine false gods are therefore often beautiful things people come to venerate as ends in and of themselves—things such as education, art, and even love and religion. All of these things are noble when pursued in the service of God and goodness, but when removed from God and goodness, they can lead to evil.
When art is not a vehicle to God and God-centered morality, it often becomes a morally worthless false god.”
― Dennis Prager, The Rational Bible: Exodus

― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“In declaring that there is no God we become our own gods, for the absence of a God does not eliminate our need of one.”
― Craig D. Lounsbrough

“Kundalini Christianity is Another Obvious Heresy that Has Entered the Church:

Phillip St. Romain is a Catholic counselor at Heartland Spirituality Center in Great Bend, Kansas (1). This group integrates contemplative prayer (meditation) within their program (2). In Kundalini Energy and Christian Spirituality, Philip St. Romain claims that meditation, which awakens Kundalini energy is compatible with Christianity. Yet, before his spiritual crises, which began in 1986, Mr. St. Romain had never heard of the Kundalini and could not find any Christian literature to guide him through this experience (3). He could not find Christian literature on kundalini because Christianity forbids Eastern meditation techniques.

However, Hindus claim that through meditation, they may awaken the inner fire of Kundalini, which lies coiled and dormant at the base of the spine. Then this energy migrates, through chakras as it activates them along the way. Then, the goddess Shakti meets Shiva at the crown of the head, and their spiritual wedding transpires. Then, devotees realize they are divine (gods) (4). This is the first lie that the serpent told Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. He said, “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil” (Genesis 3:5, KJV).

“Tawhid doesn't mean all other gods are false, tawhid means it's all one god.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot

“No Other, But One
(Naskaristana 2503)

Some say tawhid,
some say advaita,
some say ubuntu,
some say divinidad.

Tawhid doesn't mean
all other gods are false,
tawhid means it's all one god.

Divinity doesn't mean
mortal must submit to divine,
divinity means mortal and divine are one.

Divinity done properly dissolves the self,
poetry done passionately dissolves the self,
neuroscience done honestly dissolves the self.

Shallow theology fights science,
deep theology becomes it.
Shallow science fights spirituality,
deep science becomes it.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Hazrat-e Humanity: The Uncultured Polyglot
