Nazism in the New Age movement - 2

[Dorothy]

New Age in a castle
Usually the players behind the religion - conservation coalition have stayed behind the scenes. All manner of religious group leaderships have joyfully networked with the UN's conservation program, but information on this has remained quiet. After all who wants to believe that religious people could be so influenced by politicians to take on new inter-religious projects.

What is interesting is how the meanings of Judaism are perverted for the political ends of the conservation movement which in reality is part of the New Age movement.

Here's the background:

The group: http://www.arcworld.org/

Pretty impressive group of benefactors.

Now don't dismiss this so easily. Their 2009 event was in a castle and the hosts were: "The Windsor Celebration is being hosted by ARC and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). His Royal Highness the Prince Phillip is hosting the core event at Windsor Castle on November 2nd and His Excellency, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is hosting the special dinner on the evening of the 3rd."

The delegate list is pretty impressive. http://www.windsor2009.org/page8.htm The full list of delegates is available at the top of the page.

Now no one is putting in this much effort with such an impressive group just to shoot the breeze as they say. They got plans to involve the lower levels of the pyramid, and you can learn what the plans are:

The Nazi types are very big into the ecology movement.

Sequels are usually a disappointment. Only in the Karate Kid and Rocky series, were the sequels worth seeing

Aliyah, the original thread grew quite long. This is a continuation of the same material. The previous thread continues to draw readers, over 40,000 views, even though no new material was added in October and it has not appeared on the front page.

So why should Jews know of the ARC organization? Because it has big plans. From the Hazon organization report:

"The Campaign fundamentally has two goals:

"First, this December is the UN Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen. In the leadup to this important meeting of world leaders, we aim to gather thousands of people in the Jewish community to sign the campaign pledge and to pass it on to others. In doing so people commit to make a difference in their own lives; they make plain that they - we - care about these issues; and they challenge and encourage our leaders and our institutions (both within and beyond the Jewish community) to make a greater commitment to transformation over the next few years;

"Second, the Campaign seeks to break down an overwhelming task into manageable elements. We're inviting every Jewish institution - every synagogue, school, JCC, camp, every Jewish organization, every Jewish-owned business, every Hillel, every youth group - to set up a Green Team. And once you've set it up: a) start to figure out a longer-term vision and b) start now with practical small steps.

"The overall goal is that by September 2015 (at the end of the next Shmita [sabbatical] cycle in Jewish life,) we'll genuinely have transformed our communities: changing how we use buildings, how we travel, how we use energy, how we source food, how we integrate environmental education into all that we do. In doing so we'll create a Jewish community in which our young people grow up simply taking for granted that to be Jewish is to engage with the most challenging and important issue of our time; and in which other faith communities see the Jewish people playing a leading role in making a better world for all."

"The most challenging and important issue of our time"? Only for those who aren't well read. "See the Jewish people playing a leading role in making a better world for all"? Flattery works. Flattered people never check to see if the claim is reasonable.

It would seem to me that the liberal religious establishment would make better use of it's time if they worked at teaching Judaism, the religion, to the younger generation instead of just untranslated Hebrew, history, holidays and crafts.
Maybe something about the long history of Israel would be good.
