Quoted By:
Observing the new ecclesiology established in Roman Catholicism through Vatican II, the Freemason Yves Marsaudon summed up this philosophy as Unity in diversity: a phrase that could just as easily have been coined by the W.C.C.. The ultimate aim of a single world religion is never far from Masonic writings on religion. The charismatic movement reflects this Masonic ideal, it is the establishment of a common experience that is capable of being shared with people of any faith. Masonic literature points to an ultimate religious experience called theurgy which is a form of spiritism which has its origins in Egyptian cults claiming to offer communion with unseen deities. By exposing people to a profound and deeply “religious” experience the intention is to make the individual’s feelings more important than the revealed truth of the Church. Today we see a growing emphasis on our inner sense of truth, children are taught in schools to find inner fulfilment and the likes of Oprah Winfrey have espoused this dogma for decades. The new consciousness has been carefully crafted in the West to prepare people for this common religion, but it can only be successful when a sufficient majority of people have abandoned authentic Christianity. As we look at the changing nature of Anglicanism and the various western forms of Christianity, it is not alarmist to suggest that the task has nearly been completed.
