New Age Movement Explained The New Age Movement (NAM) is both a religious and a social movement. In fact, Western culture is currently experiencing a phenomenal, spiritual, ideological, and sociological shift. It is a religious world view that is alien and hostile to Christianity. It’s a multi-focused, multi-faceted synthesis, in varying degrees, of the Far Eastern, mystical religions, mainly Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, and Western Occultism, adapted to and influenced by Western, materialistic culture. It sometimes appears in secularized forms.
The BBC could be part of a ‘propaganda media network’ for al-Qeada, according to U.S. files published by WikiLeaks.WikiLeaks accuses BBC of being part of 'possible propaganda media network' for Al Qaeda
A phone number of someone at the BBC was found in phone books and programmed into the mobile phones of a number of militants seized by the Americans.
The number is believed to be based at Bush House, the headquarters of the BBC World Service.
Here's a bagillion word blog post that all adds up to "fuck you, liberal". 
Kids today - they need their asses kicked.
The typical woman is an easily manipulated idiot who can't wait to drop her drawers. 
Apparently, the only person who currently understands he's "not God" is a weatherman in Britain.
"Al Qaeda Promises U.S. Death By A 'Thousand Cuts'." 
And then there's this:Dire or emotionally charged warnings about the consequences of global warming can backfire if presented too negatively, making people less amenable to reducing their carbon footprint, according to new research from the University of California, Berkeley.Berkeley? Really? Well answer this then:
Two posts ago, I told you about the case of Penelope Dingle, the Australian woman who died from a treatable bowel cancer because she opted instead for Homeopathy. I've also told you about other aspects of NewAge thinking, and I think further testimony in the Dingle case ties things up nicely:
"CANCER victim Penny Dingle was 'fanatical' with her faith and being told she needed life-saving surgery was a great challenge to that faith, an inquest has heard.
Mrs Dingle, who attempted to treat her cancer with homeopathy and natural remedies, died in August 2005 after suffering a rectal tumour.
Giving evdence for the third day her husband Peter Dingle told the WA Coroner's Court that his wife was 'fanatical' with her faith and challenges of faith were very important to her.
The court was read a diary extract from Mrs Dingle in which she described it as 'a challenge of faith' to be told you will die if you don't have an operation, and you still won't have one.
Mr Dingle, a toxicologist who uses the title 'doctor', said his wife had faith in her ability to heal and spirituality played an important role in her life.
'She would work constantly on her faith and that would help her heal,' he said."
Isn't that interesting? Here we are in the field of medicine, and people are talking about her faith - to what faith are they referring? 
Sounds like NewAge to me, seeing how homeopathy is NewAge "energy medicine". 
And seeing how NewAgers are always fanatical in their beliefs. 
But don't take my word for it, let's let Dr. Dingle continue telling us about his powerful wife:
"Mr Dingle spoke of his wife's belief in the self-realisation fellowship and her understanding that the body's health and sickness depended entirely on how her mind perceived it.
He described Mrs Dingle's views as 'extremely strong' and said he didn't think he could go against her beliefs without losing her."
Just as I lost my NewAge wife - because I did not believe in NewAge. 
"At the inquest yesterday, the State Coroner Alastair Hope questioned why Penelope Dingle's husband - a Perth toxicologist - didn't confront the homeopath who was treating his cancer-stricken wife.
At an inquest into the death of Mrs Dingle in 2005, her husband Peter Dingle told the Perth Coroners Court he was eager not to break the trust of his ailing wife, pledging to 'remain positive' as she battled colorectal cancer."
Ahh, yes, staying positive. Now we're in the world of Barbara Ehrenreich's "Brightsided", and the NewAge fanaticism she encountered after she got cancer. 
Ehrenreich even spoke of NewAge's "relentless promotion" - there's no escape from it - and can't relentless be another word for fanatical?
Tell me:
With so much of this behavior going on around us, why are so many missing (or dismissing) it? 
Do Westerners truly think death-hugging fanaticism is only available to followers of Al Qaeda? 
And, if a delusional NewAge fanaticism is what we're encountering (and I'm convinced it is) then why aren't we approaching it as such? 
Maybe it's because NewAge fanaticism primarily exists on the Left? 
It's definitely becoming obvious that everything the Left is demanding of us is bullshit. What's not obvious to most is why, like Penelope Dingle, politicos are demanding we do things that hurt us. 
This is cultism, people - a spiritual battle - and the rest of us are in the middle of it: 
It's the subject that's time has come.
The American-born spokesman for al-Qaida has been arrested by Pakistani intelligence officers in the southern city of Karachi, two officers and a government official said Sunday, the same day Adam Gadahn appeared in a video urging U.S. Muslims to attack their own country.-- The Associated Press
The arrest of Gadahn is a major victory in the U.S.-led battle against al-Qaida and will be taken as a sign that Pakistan, criticized in the past for being an untrustworthy ally, is cooperating more fully with Washington. It follows the recent detentions of several Afghan Taliban commanders in Karachi, including the movement's No. 2 commander.
Gadahn has appeared in more than half a dozen al-Qaida videos, taunting and threatening the West and calling for its destruction. A U.S. court charged Gadahn with treason in 2006, making him the first American to face such a charge in more than 50 years."
Earlier it was reported by Pakistani media that intelligence agents had arrested Adam Gadahn, the American-born spokesman for al Qaeda, in an operation in the southern city of Karachi.-- CBS News
It was further reported by the Associated Press and Reuters that Gadahn had been arrested, sourcing security officials.
CBS News was told by sources in the Pakistan government that it was Gadahn, even after U.S. officials refused to confirm it was the California native for whom a $1 million reward has been posted.
Now, CBS News' Farhan Bokhari in Islamabad writes that earlier reports the detained individual was Gadahn proved false. According to a Pakistan security official who spoke with CBS News on condition of anonymity, the arrested individual is in fact 'a Taliban militant leader who is known as Abu Yahya.'"
"As Siraj Haqqani moved from village to village, rounding up the sons of poor Muslim families to fight for the Taliban and Al Qaeda, he offered the villagers free medical care. He even sent his physician, Dr. Hassan Duraz to conduct the clinics. There was a horrific catch, though. Duraz was a monster.-- Brad Thor, with more from the "religion of peace" - now the "religion of getting a piece" - in the kind of story we've come to expect, only from Big Journalism.
He arrived in each village with Siraj Haqqani’s uncle, Ibrahim, and Siraj’s cousin, Ishak, in tow. With them, the Haqqanis brought along their own very special tools of terror – a video camera and an eye for human flesh. You see, with Haqqani healthcare, you not only received a medical exam, if you were an attractive young girl, you also got a screen test. And heaven forbid you passed.
For those women and girls unfortunate enough to catch the good doctor’s fancy, it was show time. The Haqqani uncle and cousin would be brought into the exam room, they would set up their video equipment, and Duraz would drop his trousers and go to work.
The Haqqanis and Duraz sexually assaulted poor women throughout the tribal regions and captured every moment of their degradation and humiliation on video to enjoy over and over again.
Times were good for the Haqqani pornography ring. Their enterprise thrived until someone slipped up and word leaked out. In the blink of an eye, Siraj Haqqani was in big trouble.
And what’s a good and pious Muslim warrior to do when his moral authority and the very existence of his terror network are at stake? There’s only one answer of course. Kill everyone involved. (Everyone that is, except for family.) And that’s exactly what Siraj Haqqani did.
Haqqani not only killed the women in the video, but he also killed his own physician, Dr. Duraz. After all, dead men (and dead women for that matter) tell no tales, right?
The only thing left to do was to visit the Haqqani home theater and destroy all the evidence. With that task complete, Siraj Haqqani could sit back and relax. There was just one problem. He didn’t get all of the tapes. My contact managed to rescue some.
For the record, through independent sources in Afghanistan and Pakistan, I have confirmed that the women who appear herein, as well as Dr. Duraz, have all indeed been murdered."
"Just two nuclear bombs were enough to get Japan to surrender in World War II. It is hard to believe that it would take much more than that for the United States of America to surrender — especially with people in control of both the White House and the Congress who were for turning tail and running in Iraq just a couple of years ago.
