All spiritual societies what ever their beliefs may be deserve the respect that comes from being individually recognised as a spiritual practice that is willingly chosen by the people as their way of life.
Each spiritual society deserves the basic human rights given to all people those rights are there to ensure that the respect of the person is not diminished by what ever spiritual practice they have freely chosen to follow. Whether they use that spiritual belief to develop their talents or help others to develop theirs.
The fostering and developing of a persons right to practice their spiritual belief and the inherent rights that leads a person to understand the special gifts that they have are crucial to the development of society as a whole.
The final development of the person whatever spiritual belief they study is to be able to contribute to the establishment of peace, not only in this lifetime, but for future generations.
The contributions made by these people help all of us apply the global laws of humanity to a local situation. The future we have now is determined by what we do at this very moment.
So essential are our decisions that we make now, would either have us relive the past or cause our future generations to relive the past.
Society is made up of many spiritual beliefs each dependant on the other for their support, these spiritual beliefs when they are united provide us with the essential elements needed for us to build our personalities.
When we have found a spiritual belief that allows us to develop ourselves to a level that we can support those who are yet still to learn, we not only build a society for ourselves, but build a society based on the knowledge, support and wisdom we have gave gained, for future generations to build upon.
The creative or growth that a person has obtained is measured in the way a person can contribute their talents to the enrichment of the lives of those who have different talents to give then the possibility to enjoy their own.
Our government needs to develop its policy not on the way we ourselves feel threatened, but on the way we can help those who are threatened.
The courage shown by those here today to live and face each day is an example of man's true courage.
I wish you a happy new year with all the peace and prosperity that you have shown by your light and inspiration to others as well as myself.
