Declaration of Spiritist Religion
What A Spiritist Believes


1. A Spiritist believes in Spirit.

What Is Spirit?


To a Spiritist the word Spirit means one of two things; 1. The departed souls of our Blessed Ancestors, or, 2. The place in The Spirit World where They live. This one word in holy usage refers to both, and is a word held in a very sacred state.


If you would like a complete list of Spiritist Beliefs, order any of the free Services to the right, and they will be sent to you. (This leaflet no longer available.)


As Spirit charges nothing for Their Services, we charge nothing to those who request them from us. However any donations to help with our Work are gratefully appreciated.

 

WHAT ARE SPIRIT'S TEACHINGS
ON VIOLENCE AND WAR?


Spirit teaches that voilence or force should only be used as a last resort, and only enough force may be used to defend one's self and his or her family, and, property.A Spiritist may never strike the first blow but certain insults or threats may be considered a physical attack.
The old expression "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me, is untrue. Words can hurt as much as any weapon. There are those who use them with great skill. No one has the right to insult or threaten another, thinking they are immune from punishment merely because they are only using words. But The Lords also teach forgiveness, and encourage their people not only to be just, but also forgiving, and showing mercy sometimes even when it is undeserved.
What is true for an individual is also true on a national basis. War may only be used in defense of ourselves, or our neighbors if they are unjustly attacked.
It is the duty of the strong to protect the weak, not to oppress them.
