Someone quoted me as saying:

The swastika as used by the Third Reich was adopted from the Thule Society who was into Tantric Hinduism (a form thereof) as well as the Germanic gods who represented many things that surely were not Christian -- the point of the post. While forms of the Swastika both reversed and not have surely been used or displayed throughout history, as the Third Reich used it is connected strongly to the atheistic occultism found in Madam Blavatsky's writings as well as the non-god philosophy of nuts like Nietzsche. This is why the rant against atheistic relativism. Nothing in the Aryan cults is different than any other non-religious "religion."
Atheistic occultism? Occultism has a supernatural aspect to it, while atheism does not.
I respond:
Buddhism is atheistic. Some forms of Hinduism are atheistic. There is even a for of Christianity that is atheistic (Liberation Theology). Secular Humanism is atheism and it is considered a religious view, there are even tax exempt humanist "churches" and "counselors" in the military for secular humanists. Jainism, Confucianism, Taoism, just to name a few more. Do you think a Satanist admits to believing in a deity? I have talked to many and they reject such a notion. In fact, evolution could account for the many "gods" in Mormonism... there is ultimately no difference between it and dialectical materialism... this philosophy of Marxism says that atoms (or smaller elements) are eternal but continually change, just like their thesis/anti-thesis idea. The Mormon god is made up of atoms (quarks, DNA) just like you or me... and matter is eternal in Mormon theology/philosophy, just like Leninist-Marxist philosophy. So I could argue that Mormonism is atheistic as well.
I am putting this here to further my thinking on Mormonism, see my previous posts on the matter by clicking on the “Mormonism” tag below.
