How can we believe Falun Gong?

5. I feel the need to respond

I think we should be wary of calling those religions we do not agree with cults. We should always try to understand others. In any case, I would encourage you to read the central text of the Falun Gong, the Zhuan Falun, which is a text based on the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. I have read it a number of times and I could not find anything "anti-gay," or racist in it. Certainly the Bible and the Koran contain more anti-gay and racist statements and are even more homophobic and racist in practice than Falun Gong.

Also I think that Falun Gong, a group which is heavily involved in human rights work has far more credibility than the Sinofascists.
