This is in response to a question about the book called the "Aquarian Conspiracy" by Marilyn Ferguson. The only reference I have to the book is through a book I have read call "The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow" by Constance Cumbey. It seems that there is a move (call the New Age Movement) to form a "New World Order". From what I can tell the movement wants to suppress all forms of relegion except theirs. Another book on the subject is by Dave Hunt call "Peace, Prosperity, and the coming Holocaust". Both of the Books talk about this New Age movement. Dave.

If you haven't read "The Aquarian Conspiracy," then please refrain from unwittingly making a fool of yourself. I don't mean to insult you, but I have become very frustrated by people hearing second-hand, and (amazingly) believing, that there is something "anti-religious" or something about the Aquarian Conspiracy or the New Age Movement. Have you read "The Aquarian Conspiracy?" Do you know anyone involved in this "movement?" Do you know if you know any such people? PS I read in a book where Jews use the blood of Christian children to make matzos. Really, now. -- So remember to 'Hang by your work, and write if you get thumbs.'

I defy you to show Marilyn Ferguson calling for the suppression of any religion. I know it's a radical idea, but have you thought of READING The Aquarian Conspiracy? The New Age movement is rather fuzzy and ill-defined; it includes proponents of ideas I find silly (e. g. astrology and numerology) and of ideas and techniques I find helpful (e. g. meditation, hugging, etc.). I can't imagine New Ageism being threatening to anyone except perhaps a fundamentalist of some sort. It seems to me an extremely tolerant sort of movement. Relax, Dave. -- ...!tektronix!uw-beaver!uw-june!cwc
