Science and Religion: The Future of Religion and Our World

Welcome to AllFaith.com! Science and Religion The Future of Religion and Our World By John of AllFaith An anonymous reader asks about science's impact on Abrahamic and Indic religion, especially regarding creation and exclusionary claims. The following is my expanded reply. Hi, Usually in these answers I share the beliefs of specific religions. Your question is asking for my personal views and so I am answering from that perspective here. My personal belief is that the religion now known as Secular Humanism is deceptively advancing its doctrines and agenda in the guise of science to the detriment of all other religions and the human race itself. As for the age of the earth, my AllFaith religious belief (i.e. based on scripture, meditation and faith rather than objective observation) is that the Sanatana Dharma Vedic version is most likely accurate. It teaches the continuance of four cyclic ages -- of which we are living in the fourth (Kali Yuga: which has around 428,000 years left although this can be modified by the establishment of a "golden age" such as foretold by the biblical prophets and Indian masters such as Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu). The date for this shift in ages remains the subject of scholarly debate however for our purposes we can fix the beginning of the present age at circa 5561 B.C.E. as defined by common tradition and scripture. This traditional date fits well with biblical chronology which has our present age beginning circa 5769 B.C.E. In other words, the Bible is also accurate and in agreement with the Vedas when one understands the Genesis account to be referring to the beginning of this present age rather than to the original creation (and in this regard it is noteworthy that many see in the Genesis account two creations rather than one). This understanding is supported by Master Y'shua's (Jesus) teachings: Matt 24:3 And as he [Y'shua] sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the age {world}? "World" here is "aion" which means age not world. I believe the religious traditions that emerged through Abraham occurred after the destruction of the third age (Dvapara Yuga) -- in which the Sanatana Dharma, the pre-Vedic global Bharata religion/empire reigned supreme and sought to carry on the perennial truth: that God is One and the Source from which and to which all life emerges and returns. I further believe that we humans have gone about as far as we can spiritually without receiving an updated revelation from Ek Devata (the One God). People around the globe are now crying out for spiritual understanding even as they are abandoning the historic religions. Soon they will accept a counterfeit (John 5:43). Our ancestors were granted the Light they could comprehend and their teachings were passed down, altered, edited, and redefined to us. This generation has radically altered the Christian religion and will pass down a very different Christianity than the one left to us (if time as we know it continues). This is the nature of religious truth. Unfortunately it is common that such alterations weaken rather than strengthen the innate spirituality of the given religion. This generation has done irreparable damage to the Christian religion, even replacing its central text with a counterfeit: the New Internal Version. Amidst the upheavals taking place today is the resurrection (or better revitalization) of an ancient form of nature-based Paganism, especially the system of Ashtaroth and Moloch. This revamped ancient religious system is being presented to and embraced by the world in several different guises and it is successfully replacing Christianity, Hinduism and much of popular Judaism. Its (un)holy places include the Bohemian Grove in California and its global headquarters is in Bavaria. WHAT IS BOHEMIAN GROVE? SEE THE TRUTH AS DOCUMENTED IN ALEX'S FILM, DARK SECRETS: INSIDE BOHEMIAN GROVE. Since 1873, the Global Elite Have held secret meetings in the Ancient Redwood Forest of Northern California. Members of the so-called "Bohemian Club" Include Former Presidents Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan. The Bush family maintains a strong involvement. Each year at Bohemian Grove, members of this all-male "club" don red, black and silver robes and conduct an Occult ritual wherein they worship a giant stone owl, sacrificing a human being in effigy (some say in reality) to what they call the "Great Owl of Bohemia." Now, for the first time in history, an outsider has infiltrated Bohemian Grove with a hidden digital video camera and recorded the ritual. That man is Alex Jones, the exclusive digital video is just part of his shocking new documentary: DARK SECRETS: INSIDE BOHEMIAN GROVE The full film: Portions of popular Islam and many Christians are standing against the ancient Illuminati religion but much of organized Islam and many Christian leaders (and the NIV) have been co-opted into supporting what is happening (for instance through the Clergy Response Teams, the misapplication of Romans 13 and so on. Hinduism, like Christianity, seems to have resigned itself to extinction (there are many notable exceptions where individuals are standing firm for the truth as understood of course) and Buddhism is trying to co-exist with it. In the very near future Illuminati religion will absorb and replace all others (as Babylon the Great) until it is destroyed (as the prophets have foretold). This is all preface to your question but explains where I'm coming from with this. In my opinion, the so-called scientific worldview is attacking and destroying culture, society and all established religions and will bring in a period of darkness more dreadful than anything the world has thus far experienced: A global Scientific fascist (i.e. corporate-government based) dictatorship. It can not be stopped but it must be hindered to the best of our abilities. I Won't Back Down: Tom Petty As Master Y'shua warned: Matt 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's [i.e. the Jews] sake those days shall be shortened. Spiritually and religiously speaking there are very few benefits to modern science and lots of dangers. Our new technologies have lulled us into Agnosticism and the loss of everything we for so long held dear. The only remaining hope for religion, true knowledge/science and the human race is divine intervention: that the one called Moshiach/Messiah will come, defeat the emerging New World Order and re-establish truth and justice. If he does not come, we are facing 428,000 years of hell on earth as described in the Vedas. God is Greater than any religion and philosophy conceives. Our understandings needs to be upgraded by a truly anointed Master. That Master will come in a bit over seven years to rescue the Jewish people and, through them, us all. The One God is our only hope. Zechariah 8:23 Thus saith HaShem of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you. Genesis 12:1 Now HaShem had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee:[i.e. the Land of Israel] 2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: 3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed. This is what I personally believe. ~ John of AllFaith We Are ONE FLAME John of AllFaith's Religious Studies Religious Studies Sanatana Dharma Noahide Nazarene Christianity Grace Inclusive Judaism Islam Sikhi Buddhism Paganism
