Talk:Anarchism and religion

I added some more to the christian perspective
I added some information on the Catholic Churches view on anarchism and named a few well know catholic anarchists

Wiccan Rede
I don't know if everyone agrees with this, but I consider the Wiccan Rede to basically be a perfect description of anarchism and anarchist philosophy. Although I am not Wiccan, and not even religious, I use the Wiccan Rede as my basic ethical compass, which is how I arrived at anarchism. I think if others agree, we should say the Rede is a good articulation of anarchist thought.
 * This is the same person. I was just at the page on the Rede and it actually mentions that it has gained some popularity among anarchists and libertarians, so that seems like one vote to put it in.

Add a section on Congregationalism?
I think the congregational theory of Christian church government deserves mention in this article; at least there ought to be a link to the existing wikipedia article on it.

(Basically congregationalism refers to the belief that each local believing community should be autonomous and democratic, and it has been important in American Christian history. The section on Unitarian Universalism discusses the idea which the UUs inherited, but doesn't use the term or mention where their practice derives from.)

Discordianism
Discordianism isn't anarchistic because it "strongly resemble Situationist ideas and other core anarchist sentiments" or because "The surreality of Discordianism certainly rings of anarchism", it's anarchistic because it calls for total freedom from everything, including the state. If I remember correctly (and according to the Wikipedia article) Kerry Thornley, the co-founder of the religion, was an anarchist, and maybe Greg Hill (the other co-founder) too.

Discordianism might be the most anarchistic religion of them all, it even calls against the authority of it's own writings! ("A Discordian is Prohibited from Believing What he reads" - from the Principia Discordia).
