I think you're free to abstain from ANY of those things you object to, including paying taxes that support such activities. You just have to accept the consequences. Would your faith have you do less?

Too late for that. Social engineering has been around for some time now in various forms. It's just taking another leap forward. As for me, I'm about to enter into a group marriage of five men, five women, three dogs, two monkeys, and a ferret. We all love one another and look forward to society's recognition of our special, lifetime commitment to one another. I think we'll ask Parsons to be our best human and hand out the 16 wedding bands to the happy 16-tuplet.

I found this kind of interesting. Today's New Age, Hippie, Baby Boomer, Leftist, Socialist, Communists are more...refined in their eyes: New Age shares other common ground with Hitler's Third Reich and the Thule Society: the use of swastikas (its ancient occult meaning explained by Blavatsky in 'The Secret Doctrine'), development of spirit-contacts including Lucifer, a contempt for certain 'amateur' occult practices such as astrology ('higher adepts' such as the leaders of 'Lucis Trust' dismiss astrology and astral arts as worthless beyond achieving initial spirit contact; Hitler also looked down on astrology as a 'parlor game', although Himmler was devoted to it), reverence for Tibetan Buddhism (according to one New Age source, Hitler sent SS officers to the Himalayas to consult with the 'ascended masters'), organized initiation into pagan and occult practices, and [virtually unknown] glorification of homosexuality as a 'path to higher consciousness and superhuman power' [In accordance with widespread occult practice, promotion in the SS was conditional on adopting "warrior" or super-masculine homosexuality; effeminate homosexuals were despised and were sent to the camps. See The Pink Swastika, Homosexuality in the Nazi Party, Scott Lively & Kevin Abrams, on line via the Web].
