You describe Falun Gong as a sect. Have either of you met a Falun Gong

them and then tell me they are a "sect."Not me - it was the other guy.
Falun Gong is very similiar to Yoga and other Asian excercise/meditation.
To call it a "sect" reveals how much the Communist Party propaganda has
permeated Western thought.I consider it a philosophy (not a perfect one, but better than
hard-line Marxism), and the fact that it is practiced by *very* many
people (more Falun Gong worldwide than Jews, for example) lifts it out
of the sect department, anyway.
