  • Introduction to the Study of New Religious Movements|
    A HISTORICAL INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF NEW RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS| W. Michael Ashcraft Routledge 2018 Chapter One: Introduction Douglas Cowan was a young minister in the United Church of Canada. His first parish assignment was to a couple of little towns in southern Alberta, Cardston and Magrath, located in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies. Cowan did not know much about this area, except that many members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), or Mormons, lived there. Cardston was the northern limit of Mormon expansion in the 1880s. The first Mormon temple in Canada was built there. When Cowan phoned a denominational official to ask about Cardston’s Mormons, that individual simply said “there are some Mormons there.” In fact, 4000 of the 5000 residents of Cardston were Mormons! Cowan said, “it’s the only place I’ve ever lived where people identify themselves negatively first: ‘Hi, I’m Bob, I’m not Mormon’.”1 Cowan knew nothing about Mormonism, so he went to a Christian bookstore and bought a copy of The God Makers (1984).2 The authors, Ed Decker and Dave Hunt, claimed that they were unveiling Mormonism’s secrets. As Cowan recalled, “I take it [The God Makers] home and I’m in my mother’s kitchen and I’m reading it that afternoon and it’s filled with just the most outlandish things ... I don’t know whether to believe it or not, but I looked up, my Mom says, you know, ‘honey what’s wrong?’ I said, 1 Mom, ‘they’re sending me to Mars.’ But of course I get there and [the Mormons] are just like everybody else… they raise their kids, they farm their crops, they crash their cars.”3 During Cowan’s time in Cardston and Magrath, the locals who were part of the LDS church became his neighbors and friends.

  • From Ludendorff's Gotterkenntnis to Sigrid Hunke's
    SCIENTIFIC NEO-PAGANISM AND THE EXTREME RIGHT THEN AND TODAY: FROM LUDENDORFF’S GOTTERKENNTNIS TO SIGRID HUNKE’S EUROPAS EIGENE RELIGION by Karla Poewe and Irving Hexham This paper was published as: “Jakob Wilhelm Hauer's New Religion and National Socialism.” Karla Poewe and Irving Hexham. Journal of Contemporary Religion, 20 (2) 2005: 195-215 1 ABSTRACT During the Weimar Republic, flourishing new religions were harnessed to usher in the cultural revolution from the right that was soon dominated by the Nazis. J. William Hauer’s Deutsche Glaubensbewegung, an umbrella group for numerous new religions from versions of Hinduism to Nordic Neo-Paganism, all collaborated, at some point, with Hitler and his party. This paper shows the continuity of core ideas from Mathilde Ludendorff’s Gotterkenntnis to Hauer’s Glaubensbewegung and, importantly, Sigrid Hunke’s Unitarier. It shows, further, the close connections between these forms of neo-paganism and the present day European New Right. The paradoxical co-occurrence in fascism of a religious populism and a metapolitical elitism, philosophical vitalism and dreams of national or European rebirth, has its roots in these French and German forms of neo-paganism. 2 Biographical Details: Karla Poewe is professor of anthropology in the Anthropology Department of the University of Calgary. She has published eight books, sometimes co-authored with Irving Hexham, among them, New Religions as Global Cultures (1997), Charismatic Christianity as a Global Culture (1994), Matrilineal Ideology (1981). Research was conducted in Zamibia, Namibia, South Africa and, for this paper, Germany. Irving Hexham is professor of Religious Studies at the University of Calgary.
