“I just think in this world of extreme religious pluralism, the great spectrum of things ranging from the healthy and the respectable, and the balance and the true and tried, you go down to quite bizarre things which are very risky for people, particularly people who are young or vulnerable or unable to discriminate.” PeopleThinkingWorldYoungReligiousThis WorldBalanceHealthyExtremesVulnerableBizarreSpectrumRespectablePluralismPluralism Is Author:Peter Hollingworth
“Spiritual Balance is the obvious answer to the obsession that sometimes accompanies religious practice, occult practice, philosophical understandings - the assertion that one is right - that something that you're doing is better than something somebody else is doing, the way you're doing it is better than the way someone else is doing it.” WaySometimesSpiritualUnderstandingReligiousAnswersPracticeBuddhismBalancePhilosophicalObviousObsessionBuddhistEtiquetteAssertionOccultAccompanyReligious PracticesSpiritual Balance Author:Frederick Lenz
“I am truly amazed that after all this time, religious groups still need to attack entertainment and use these tragedies as a pitiful excuse for their own self-serving publicity. In response to their protests, I will provide a show where I balance my songs with a wholesome Bible reading. This way, fans will not only hear my so-called, violent point of view, but we can also examine the virtues of wonderful 'Christian' stories of disease, murder, adultery, suicide and child sacrifice. Now that seems like 'entertainment' to me.” WayNeedsChildrenStillsSelfStoriesUseShowsSeemsChristianSongReadingReligiousViewsVirtueWonderfulSacrificeGroupsAtheismFansBalanceDiseaseTragedyMurderSuicideResponseEntertainmentExcusePositive AtheismPoint Of ViewViolentProtestServingAmazedAdulteryPublicityPitifulSelf ServingBible Reading Author:Marilyn Manson

“I have a feeling-as compelling as a religious conviction-that if industry will constantly pass on to the worker and the customer all the savings of labor-saving machinery and invention, rather than siphon them off into the pools of watered securities, it will by that process keep distribution and production in balance and go as far toward Utopia as our poor human natures will go or be driven.” IfsHumansFeelingsProcessReligiousPoorSecurityHuman NatureIndustryBalanceLaborWorkersProductionsConvictionCustomersDrivenInventionSavingPoolCompellingDistributionMachinerySavingsUtopia Author:Samuel B.

“I have always endeavoured, as my double duty of believer and sovereign dictated, to follow the precepts of the sacred Book of Islam: precepts of balance, justice and moderation. Although my religious education was very literal, in that I learnt to understand the precepts of the Koran precisely according to the text, we have seen that on several occasions throughout my life, I have felt myself to be very particularly in the hands of the Almighty.” BookHandsFeltReligiousJusticeDutyBalanceSacredIslamBelieverOccasionsAlmightySovereignModerationLiteralReligious Education Author:Mohammed Reza Pahlavi
