Another example is Jungian psychology: Carl Jung was devoted to his spirit guide
"Philemon", to occult practices and to racist Ayranism. (See Harvard professor Richard Noll's
books, _The Jung Cult_ and _The Aryan Christ: The Secret Life of Carl Jung_, the sources
for details which follow.) An excellent analysis of Jung's indebtedness to Theosophy and
other mystery religions, based on Noll's research, is offered by Janet Biehl at "The Social
Ecology Project". Researcher D. Sklar (_The Nazis and the Occult_) outlines Jung's
experiences as a child in a spiritist family, which convinced him that he was chosen by God to
be a prophet of the Age of Aquarius. Pivotal life events continued to revolve around spiritist
and occultic involvement; Jungian psychologist Morton Kelsey states that Jung viewed
witchcraft and shamanism as beneficial exercises (as does Kelsey himself). A key turning
point was Jung's self-induced psychotic breakdown in December 1913, in which he was
"transformed" into the Mitraic lion-headed god, "Aion". This experience directly led to his
key concepts of "archetypes", the "collective subconscious" mind and the irrelevance of
reality in the face of perceived reality [ideas long taught in Hinduism and occult circles]. His
quotes concerning his brand of psychoanalysis show that he wanted to duplicate his 1913
experience in others. [We might say that his efforts to lose his mental stability were so
successful that he dedicated the rest of his career to helping others lose theirs....] Jung's stated
goals are "self-deification" and the corresponding "death" of one's "personal being", which as
Noll points out are the components of a gnostic initiation experience. But perhaps one of the
biggest shocks for Jewish Jungian fans will be the discovery that Jung's ideal psychotherapy
system was one in which "German psychology" would be kept carefully separate from any
taint of "Jewish psychology" [see the Nazism section for details].
And then there is NA religion parading as "science" in neo-Darwinism and evolutionism.
One of the leading thinkers in this field, Dr. Michael Ruse, has proposed that the myth of
evolution as "science" be laid to rest, pointing out that it is actually a "secular religion" due to
its reliance on "metaphysical" assumptions. [Regarding this last item, which might tempt
creationists to celebrate, I have good news and bad news. Yes, this can level the playing field
in the fight to get equal time for creationism in public education, and lay to rest the unfair
science-religion dichotomy which has censored Biblical models. There are a growing number
of scientists who are ready to ditch Darwin as science. But monotheists will face a worse
situation when evolutionism undergoes the "paradigm shift" which physicist-psychologist
Peter Russell (a Bailey disciple and Findhorn member) insists must transform all sciences:
from a system that has "no place for God" and comes up with too few answers, to a spiritual
system where "God" is "within human consciousness" and factual answers are not necessary.
(See
"Science and Spirituality", _World Goodwill Newsletter_, No.2, 1997. WG is a branch of
Lucis Trust, publisher of Bailey's works.) Biblical creationism will then be challenged by a
synthesis of evolution-creation in which all the current flaws of standard evolution are
plugged with NA teaching: the missing links will be solved by visitations from alien
"creators" who triggered "quantum leaps" in human evolution; life's irreducible complexity
will be acknowledged with references to forces and deities no less impressive than the G-d of
the Bible; and any remaining inconsistencies can be ignored and explained (as Russell says)
as "maya" - the illusion of material reality. Under those circumstances, we can expect the
current reluctance among scientists to allow creationism into the schools will give away - not
in defeat but in the confidence that whatever creation science has to say will no longer
threaten them. They will expect the children to be so indoctrinated that Biblical models will
not impress them.]
