Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
The path out of this present age of darkness is clear and simple, but no one wants to take it. It is a path that starts with recognizing the failure of oneself to lead a disciplined life, runs through the acceptance that democracy is a failed experiment and includes the firm understanding that materialism is the enemy. This enemy is a two-headed dragon. One head is the dialectical materialism of Marxism and Marxian socialism. The other head is the combined forces of consumerism and laissez-fare capitalism. The ideology of National Destiny combines Fascism and Integralism to bring about a revival of the human spirit that has been excluded from modernity in the West. This is not an ideology of racism. All races can play a role in National Destiny. It is simply a question of renouncing the narcotic of victimhood, standing up straight and tall, and answering the call of the Fatherland.

Pages : 424
Book Description
' . . . a comprehensive, balanced and perceptive account' --Michael Grimshaw, NZ Listener 'This account by Massey University history professor Peter Lineham is fascinating, detailed and more nuanced than the media coverage Tamaki attracted. Lineham puts the ambitious church in context, nationally and internationally.' --Philip Matthews, Weekend Press While Destiny Church began in 1998, it rose to notoriety in 2004 with its 'Enough is Enough' march against what it deemed society's declining moral standards. Destiny and its leader Brian Tamaki have since become a significant - if controversial - presence in New Zealand's religious, political and Maori worlds. But what is Destiny? What does it stand for? Who are its followers? Destiny, written by respected commentator Peter Lineham, is the first full and independent account of the church and its personnel. With unprecedented access to its inner workings, including interviews with Bishop Brian Tamaki and other pastors, Lineham reveals the truth about the man and the movement, addressing the public's questions and fears, and delivering a fascinating picture of the organisation on the eve of launching its 'City of God'.
