Who is Behind it? The Israeli Center for Victims of Cults (ICVC) is well-known in Israel for its activities against a number of religious and spiritual movements that are depicted as harmful and dangerous. Over the years, the ICVC has managed to garner easy access to the media and Israeli government due to its moral panic narratives and campaign for an anti-cult law. It is therefore not surprising that the ICVC has also emerged in Europe, in particular, on the website of FECRIS (European Federation of Centers of Research and Information on Cults and Sects), as its Israel correspondent.1 For many years, FECRIS has been heavily criticized by international human rights organizations for fomenting social hostility and hate speech towards non-mainstream religions and worldviews, usually of foreign origin, and for stigmatizing members of these groups.2 Religious studies scholars and the scientific establishment in general have also denounced FECRIS for the lack of expertise of their so-called “cult experts”.

  • Matot-Maasei Copy.Pages
    BS”D South Head Youth Parasha Sheet Parashat Matot Parashat Matot teaches us the importance of our words. One might think that the words we speak are not important. However, this is not so. The Torah teaches us that words are very important. A Jew should be careful with the words he uses, particularly when making a promise. This is because when we make a promise we are responsible to keep it. For this reason, it is actually best to avoid making promises, because when a person breaks his promise he has committed a sin. Therefore, rather than making a promise, it’s a good idea to say the words ‘Bli Neder'. These words translate to mean ‘it’s not a promise’. So when a person says that he is going to do something, and adds in the words ‘Bli Neder’ he is not bound by any promises. Therefore, if he forgets to do what he said he was going to do, the person has not committed a sin. Of course, there is the off-chance that we might forget to say the words ‘Bli Neder’ and we might actually promise to do something which for some reason we do not end up doing. Therefore the Torah teaches us a few ways of undoing a promise. A person may go to a Beit Din, a Jewish Court or to a great Torah scholar and explain to the Beit Din or the Torah scholar the promise he made. The Beit Din or Torah scholar can then nullify the promise for the person if they find a good reason to cancel it.

  • Isaac Watts - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Isaac Watts - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Isaac Watts(17 July 1674 – 25 November 1748) Isaac Watts (17 July 1674 – 25 November 1748) was an English hymnwriter, theologian and logician. A prolific and popular hymnwriter, he was recognised as the "Father of English Hymnody", credited with some 650 hymns. Many of his hymns remain in use today, and have been translated into many languages. Born in Southampton, England, in 1674, Watts was brought up in the home of a committed religious Nonconformist — his father, also Isaac Watts, had been incarcerated twice for his controversial views. At King Edward VI School (where one of the houses is now named "Watts" in his honour), Watts learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. From an early age, Watts displayed a propensity for rhyme. Watts, unable to go to either Oxford or Cambridge on account of his non- conformity, went to the Dissenting Academy at Stoke Newington in 1690, and much of his life centred around that village, which is now part of Inner London. His education led him to the pastorate of a large independent chapel in London, where he found himself in the position of helping trainee preachers, despite his poor health. Taking work as a private tutor, Watts lived with the Nonconformist Hartopp family at Fleetwood House, on Church Street in Stoke Newington, and later in the household of their immediate neighbours Sir Thomas Abney and Lady Mary. Though a Nonconformist, Sir Thomas practised occasional conformity to the Church of England, as necessitated by his being Lord Mayor of London between 1700 and 1701.

  • Democratic Culture and Muslim Political Participation in Post-Suharto Indonesia
    RELIGIOUS DEMOCRATS: DEMOCRATIC CULTURE AND MUSLIM POLITICAL PARTICIPATION IN POST-SUHARTO INDONESIA DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science at The Ohio State University by Saiful Mujani, MA ***** The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor R. William Liddle, Adviser Professor Bradley M. Richardson Professor Goldie Shabad ___________________________ Adviser Department of Political Science ABSTRACT Most theories about the negative relationship between Islam and democracy rely on an interpretation of the Islamic political tradition. More positive accounts are also anchored in the same tradition, interpreted in a different way. While some scholarship relies on more empirical observation and analysis, there is no single work which systematically demonstrates the relationship between Islam and democracy. This study is an attempt to fill this gap by defining Islam empirically in terms of several components and democracy in terms of the components of democratic culture— social capital, political tolerance, political engagement, political trust, and support for the democratic system—and political participation. The theories which assert that Islam is inimical to democracy are tested by examining the extent to which the Islamic and democratic components are negatively associated. Indonesia was selected for this research as it is the most populous Muslim country in the world, with considerable variation among Muslims in belief and practice. Two national mass surveys were conducted in 2001 and 2002. This study found that Islam defined by two sets of rituals, the networks of Islamic civic engagement, Islamic social identity, and Islamist political orientations (Islamism) does not have a negative association with the components of democracy.

  • Israel, Middle East
    Israel F N JUNE 23, 1992, FIFTEEN YEARS of Likud rule came to an end. The Labor party returned to power, with Yitzhak Rabin taking up where he had left off in 1977. The midyear change of government brought about a dramatic shift in Israel's international stature: relations with the United States, which had hit bottom during the first part of 1992 because of differences between the Bush administration and the Shamir government over loan guarantees, were quickly restored and im- proved. The international community as a whole greeted the new government and its policies with satisfaction, especially after its decision to unilaterally freeze new housing in Jewish settlements in the territories. However, expectations for a quick breakthrough in the peace process begun the previous year were dashed by the end of the year. Not only was no substantial progress achieved in the peace talks, but the very continuation of the process was overshadowed by Israel's decision to deport 400 Hamas activists to south Lebanon. Prime Minister Rabin, it seemed, was more eager than his Likud predecessors to achieve peace, but he had no intention of dropping the hard-line policies on matters of security that had earned him the confidence of the Israeli electorate in the first place. NATIONAL SECURITY The Intifada The intifada continued unabated in 1992, despite the promise held out by the Washington peace talks and despite the midyear change of power from Likud to Labor, which brought about a significant moderation of government policies toward the territories and the Palestinians. Internecine bloodshed among the Palestinians continued to rise, as Palestinians killed almost twice as many of their own number (238) as were killed in skirmishes with the Israeli army (124).
