falun gong promotes a way to good health, moral living, and
inner happiness, styles itself as a school of qigong (which is how
it started in China),
and it's doctrine borrows heavily from Buddhist and Taoist
philosophies.
It was founded by a Chinese, Li Hong Zhi, now settled in
china.
Orthodox religions do not accept it as a religion and view it more
as an occult, on a religious perspective.
Its doctrine of racial purity is frown upon and is probably why it
is banned in singapore. They believe that races are not to be
intermingled and even in heaven there is segregation of
races.
They say they are not a religion but registered themselves as falun
budda society, they say there are not political but we often see
them protesting against governments, to the extent of burning
themselves to death. I cannot trust them or accept them because of
such ambiguity and fanatism.
What worries me is that they are very actively preaching to
children, saw this in serangoon stadium. I certainly don't want my
children to have anything to do with them.
