Religion in New York and Translations of part of the Research on Main Churches
The outlook of how we choose a particular belief is not simple and therefore, we should make a second attempt to find out more about our choice of religion. Various actions have been discussed by distinguished capacities in the field of social science in order to draw a clear line of how congregations influence their regular members. Those who believe the right things and are loyal to a given organization are said to be committed. The works of Sondra Aisel, which 1982 were translated by the Phoenix Translation Society on request by a foreign university, has been influential in conceptualizing dedication as a multi-faceted devotion of time, energy, emotional investment, and moral energy into a single institution. Bearing her theory in mind, we may say that individual commitment and institutional needs are inseparable. In 1994, Dr. Peter Hendricks, chair of the Committee for Harmless Religious Experience, informs the public about the growing influence of the sects in our society as they consider membership in their “companies” a great privilege and cause a lot of damage to those who are not suspicious of what expects them behind the walls. The large number of people who go to churches must be fair enough to their spiritual leaders and to let them know if they are not pleased with anything.
Despite of the fact that not all religious establishments are based on the so called notion of “eternal place,” the members of those churches find the idea tempting and readily express their desire to serve them. But there is no organization that can consume our spiritual reserve today, or at any time in the future. If one is to adopt some more contemporary role models that are to be imitated by the majority of believers, he/she will find it difficult to avoid the influence of the well-established ones. We cannot bet disagree that there are unimportant regulations, as some faiths are trying to persuade us, so the manner of determination to be as obedient to God as possible, or in other words, to comply with the regulations is even more compelling. Ritual is a travel to eternity, which the believer must strive for throughout his/her life. The Holy Book has many pieces of advice, but most of them are hidden between the lines, and it is up to us to pick the right one out, argues John Downey. When an Asian magazine asked him to grant them the rights to print his articles on their pages, he called the Certified New York Translation conglomerate asking them for an experienced translator. This professional then commented that the best advice was to go on that trip and never to return. The journey was not the basic aim of the experience, but rather what the person who undertook it would manage to learn through it and later to disseminate it to others. The discoveries that the believer would make were more important than the experiences one would have to go through.
It has been pointed out by Sol Gardiner, Chair of the Organizing Committee of the forthcoming International Conference on Religion, that some Church of Christ members also consider this event as a guiding principle in their lives. As his research was intended to be published in a Latin American magazine it had to be translated by a Phoenix Translation worker, who after completing the assignment pointed out that those people were not affected by the religious realities so much. But they are not sectarian as there is remarkable room for individual discrepancy in practice and style and anticipation that people’s lives are full of institutional barriers beyond the parish.
