[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Realize that you are going to a fundraiser for Falun Gong, so the underlying theme is not so much going to be spiritual as it is political.[/quote]

Falun Gong is first and foremost a spiritual philosophy. You could call it a religion. Like many other such movements in history, it has been suppressed by a government. You could say that of Protestantism in Europe.[/quote]

Most of their money is used to fund influence operations around the world and criticize the Chinese government. Which by itself is fine because they've been terribly persecuted. However they are an incredibly shady organization because they are not transparent about where the ticket sales go or why they are throwing these cultural events. It's like showing up a cooking class and later finding out later that it was a Republican fundraiser - like huh? So creepy that it's not disclosed up front and makes you wonder what else they are hiding.[/quote]

Oh I believe you. That is exactly how a religion operates :-)[/quote]
