II. Universal Principles |
|
| Article 08- Belief | ||
| 8.1 | Belief | |
| Belief is confidence in or reliance on the validity of some quality or attribute of a Form based on custom and faith without Proof. Belief is therefore equivalent to the concept of Trust based on faith of a higher deity. |
||
| Belief is not the same meaning as Faith, nor Trust. Belief is a fictional term originally equivalent in meaning “Trust in God” whereas Faith in its original fictional sense means “duty of fulfilling one’s trust in God”. Belief is therefore trust in the “Divine” that something is true, whereas Faith is an obligation to believe something is true. |
||
| Belief is not the same meaning as Knosis or “true knowledge”. Belief is based on trust of a higher deity, while Knosis or true knowledge is based on trust borne from Proof, Reason or Logic. In order to strengthen certain fictional models of Reality based on Faith, the definition of Knosis has been abrogated and the definition of Belief deliberately misconstrued. |
||
| As these articles and laws annexed hereto in full incorporate the proof and existence of the Divine Creator in All as well as perfect Knosis, it may be correctly concluded that these articles represent “perfect belief”. |
||
| 8.2 | Freedom of belief | |
| Consistent and subject to the rights, responsibilities and privileges stated in this Charter, it is a founding principle that all men and women have the right to subscribe and practice whatever belief systems they choose providing such belief systems do not promote self harm or hate towards others. |
||
| 8.3 | Freedom of expression of belief | |
| Excepting belief systems containing material based on self-hate that are therefore subject to identification, labelling and regulation, it shall be a right for individuals and groups to freely express to others their belief systems. |
||
| 8.4 | Secular belief of the Union | |
| It is a founding principle of this Charter that the instruments, objects and function of the Union shall always be secular and free from subscription to any religious belief system. |
