關於各国政府对邪教组织的确认,詳見「被政府認定為邪教的團體列表」。
邪教是對某些具有不为熟悉的信仰或宗教行为,或被认为是奇怪的宗教教派的帶有負面
價值的評斷稱呼。[1] 根據不同人士所持的不同價值觀,會對邪教有不同的認定;因此
这个词的使用被认为具主观性。例如,基於不同權力鬥爭的形式,世俗權力不時會點名
稱呼一些教派為邪教。而被这个词指称的对象往往是一个特定社会里的少数人。
目前的宗教研究学术界中已经摒弃使用这个主观概念,取而代之的是不含贬义色彩的中

s******t 发帖数: 2511 | 41 [人物] John Henry Newman
倘若大丈夫不能力挽千钧,除暴安良,那就应该像约翰纽曼这样勇于追求真理,有着“
道之所在,虽千万人吾往矣”的气概。记得中学里读辜鸿铭的文章,辜鸿铭写过一本书
,叫做《中国牛津运动》,把当时的两江总督张之洞比作英国的约翰纽曼,从此“牛津
运动”这个词就在我的脑子里有了印象。很可惜,出了这位顽固保守不开化不肯剪掉辫
子的辜鸿铭的文章,我并没有在其他任何中文书籍里看到“牛津运动”的相关内容。
十多年后的今天,我又和“牛津运动”邂逅了,再一次地,我遇到了这位执着渊博的纽
曼主教。纽曼曾经是一位英国国教会(圣公会)的牧师。在经历了很长时间的属灵思考
和笔记(see his Tract系列,纽曼的心灵之旅)之后,他于1845年皈依了罗马天主教
,逐年地担任了神父、主教、枢机的职务。那个时候,虽然离开亨利八世已经三百多年
了,但是英国依旧普遍充斥着对天主教有强烈反感。纽曼的皈依之旅是非常坎坷的。他
的家庭成员和他几乎断绝了联系,而他的大学牛津也以他为耻。但是,面对逆境,纽曼
对于信仰的执着追求依旧带来了一系列的成果。他学问渊博,可以深刻讨论理性、情感

The ongoing imbroglio with Denver Bronco quarterback Tim Tebow has made
plain three really unflattering facts about the secular-progressive ("sec-

Christianity has been received by NFL mensae magnae (contradiction in terms?
) as a type of threat. These folks have responded by building upon the
previously gathered strength of the anti-Christian movement in this nation.

Salt Lake City, Utah (CNN) -- Shortly after he was arrested in March 2003
and charged with kidnapping Elizabeth Smart in the dark of night, self-
styled prophet Brian David Mitchell wrote that God intended for her to be at
his side as he battled the Antichrist and restored the true Mormon faith to
its rightful place.

When the Creator had finished thinking, He said, "I have thought. Behold!"
He lifted His hand, and from it burst a fountain-spray of fire, a million
stupendous suns, which clove the blackness and soared, away and away and
away, diminishing in magnitude and intensity as they pierced the far
frontiers of Space, until at last they were but as diamond nailheads
sparkling under the domed vast roof of the universe.
At the end of an hour the Grand Council was dismissed.
