| ARTICLES RELATED TO Spirituality versus Religion | | | |  Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Scientology - OriginsImmediately prior to his first Dianetics publications, Hubbard was involved with occultist Jack Parsons in performing rites developed by Aleister Crowley. Some investigators have noted similarities in Hubbard's writings to the doctrines of Crowley,[3] though the Church of Scientology denies any such connection. An influence that Hubbard did acknowledge is the system of General Semantics developed by Alfred Korzybski in the 1930s. [4] Scientology also reflects the influence of the Hindu concept of karma, as well as the less metaphysical theories of Sigmun ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human nature - Metaphysics and ethics There are a number of perspectives regarding the fundamental nature and substance of humans. These are by no means mutually exclusive, and the following list is by no means exhaustive:
Philosophical naturalism (which includes materialism and rationalism) encompasses a set of views that humans are purely natural phenomena; sophisticated animals that evolved to our present state through natural mechanisms such as evolution. Good and evil are regarded as labels placed on how well individual behaviour conforms to societal expectatio ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Opposition to cults and new religious movements - History Already in the first half of the 20th century some conservative Christian scholars, most of them Protestants, wrote in apologetical style defending Christian mainstream theology against the teachings of fringe groups. This activity continues until today by more or less mainstream churches and groups and on various levels of theological expertise and is summed up as Christian countercult movement. Most of its pro ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Tlingit - Philosophy and Religion Tlingit thought and belief, although never formally codified, was historically a fairly well organized philosophical and religious system whose basic axioms shaped the way all Tlingit people viewed and interacted with the world around them. After the introduction of Christianity, both in its earlier Russian Orthodox form and later Protestantism, the Tlingit belief system began to erode. Much of the original belief system, particularly ideas of spirituality and shamanism, was lost due to Christian persecution and govern ...

The Church has come into conflict with the governments and police forces of several countries (including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Germany) numerous times over the years, though supporters note that many major world religions have found themselves in conflict with civil government in their early years.

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Keith Henson - Henson versus Scientology Henson has become one of the focal points of the ongoing struggle between the Church of Scientology and its critics, often referred to as Scientology vs. the Internet. Henson is a staunch critic of Scientology, whose retaliation resulted in his being convicted under a California law for interfering with the civil rights of Scientologists. The jury was not permitted to hear key elements of Henson's defense, specifically that he was exercising his First Amendment right in criticizing what he deemed a dangerous cult, and convicted him of interf ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Scientology - Beliefs and practices Scientology's doctrines were established by Hubbard over a period of about 33 years, beginning in 1952 and continuing until his death in January 1986. Most of the basic principles of the church were set out during the 1950s and 1960s.
Scientology followed on the heels of Dianetics, an earlier system of self-improvement techniques laid out by Hubbard in his 1950 book, Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health. By the mid-1950s, Hubbard had relegated Dianetics to a sub-study of Scientology. A chief difference between Dianeti ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Mithraism - Parallels to Christianity According to Martin A. Larson, in The Story of Christian Origins (1977), Mithraism and Christianity derived from the same sources, originally from the savior cult of Osiris. However, Larson believes that the Essenes were Jewish Pythagoreans, whose members not only gave birth to Christianity as Essenes, but were directly influenced by Zoroastrian doctrine as Pythagoreans. Mithraism, an established but exclusive sect devoted to social justice, was assimilated by state-s ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human nature - Influential views of human nature As a general rule, any -ism important enough to be both defended and attacked, probably states or implies a distinctive view about human nature. Platonism, Marxism and Freudianism may serve as examples of this rule.
Plato took a conception of reason and the examined life that he learnt from Socrates and built both a metaphysics and, more to our point, an anthropology around it. There was an intellectual soul, resident in the human head, and there was a appetitive beast, resident in the belly and genitals. The duty of the former is to keep the latter tamed and, in time, to ...

| | | | | Spirituality versus Religion: Encyclopedia II - Human nature - Psychology and biology A long standing question in philosophy and science is whether there exists an invariant human nature. For those who believe there is a human nature, further questions include:
What determines/constrains human nature?
To what extent is human nature malleable?
How does it vary between people and populations?
Since human behavior is diverse, it can be difficult to find absolutely invariant human behaviors that are of interest to philosophers. A lesser (but still scientifically valid) standard for evi ...

Catholicism categorizes sins into various groups. A wounding of the relationship with God is often called venial sin; a complete rupture of the relationship with God is often called mortal sin. Without salvation from sin (see below), a person's separation from God is ...
