Declaration Of The Spiritist Religion
1. We do not believe in the creation of the universe, but that
everything evolved, and continues to evolve through a natural
order.
2. We believe that each person is responsible for the
atonement of their own mistakes, and no one else can do this for
them.
3. We believe that mental individuality continues after
physical death and that people in the Material World can
communicate with those who have died and entered The Spirit
World.
4. We believe in friendship between all races and all
religious creeds, and that no one should try to force their faith
on others.
5. We believe that a person lives more than one lifetime in
the Material World.
6. We believe that peace, love and logic should be the highest
goals for the world.
7. We believe the male/female relationship is sacred and that
all others are abnormal.
8. We do not believe in the use of drugs, except for necessary
medicines, since they can destroy the Soul.
9. We believe that tyranny is wrong, and should be opposed
with all effort.
10. We do not believe in human or animal sacrifices.
11. We believe in freedom and justice for all, but fair and
just punishment for those who abuse others, whether they are rich
or poor.
12. We believe that hate and fear destroy the soul. That the
ultimate goal should be for one to defend themself, and not to
hate their enemies. One should never strike the first blow in
battle, only fight in self defense, and in defense of the weak
13. We believe that there are intelligent life forms other
than in the human form within our galaxy, and we respect them.
14. We believe that logic should rule over emotions in
decision making. Too much love, and, too much hate can destroy
the Soul, and, the Souls of others.
15. We believe that the Earth has been visited by alien life
forms, and is still being visited by alien life forms today.
16. We believe that the development of psychic abilities
through any creed is good, as long as these powers are not used
for evil purposes.
17. We do not believe in personal adornment, the wearing of makeup, jewelry, or altering the body by any artificial means.
