Corporations Become Religious Organizations

Community churches began using scenes from popular movies and TV shows as examples of possible ethical conflicts, dilemmas, and personal problems, and then using the excerpt as a theme to preach an entire sermon.

The result of making sermons less offensive by replacing god with generic goodness has been to inspire corporate priests to use the same material and methods with small modifications. Ethical recommitments have replaced rededications to god; sin is replaced with conflicts and dilemmas; repentance is replaced with calling an ethics advisor; and god becomes customer confidence.

Ethics replaced bible morality when the pastors removed god and the law from sermons, and replaced them with dilemmas, conflicts, and problems.

Getting together in small groups became the method of persuading the unconverted and uncommitted to go along with the now godless morality. This appears to largely be the work of Rick Warren and the Church Growth movement which is now expanding into corporations.

The corporations seized upon this new godless morality and small group methods. The very foundation of the new global economic morality is cleanliness; the 5-S's, extrapolated into every detail of what is called standard work and then preached as a worthy religion to practice at home.

The only difference between past Judeo-Christianity and corporations is that the new religion's morality removed the god if Israel, and replaced certain religious laws with stricter ones that appear more righteous than the ones given Moses.

Ethical correctness will join political correctness into a whip that will bludgeon anyone who defies the popular consensus.
