中新社北京2007年8月16日电 中国反邪教协会人士今天表示，境外“法轮功”组织将于今年十月在美国举办“全世界华人声乐比赛”，此后还将搞所谓的“全球性系列大赛”，其目的是以欺骗手段网罗该组织极为缺乏的文艺人才和专业人士，淡化其邪教色彩。
总部设在美国纽约的“新唐人电视台”此前宣布，将在今年十月举办“全世界华人声乐比赛”，“大纪元时报”和“希望之声国际广播电台”协办；此后还将陆续推出“全世界武术大赛”、“全世界华人运动会”等“全球性华人赛事”。
中国反邪教协会资深专家指出，“法轮功”组织的邪教性质早已为世人所认识，而“新唐人电视台”、“大纪元时报”和“希望之声国际广播电台”则是“法轮功”的三大媒体。这三个媒体多次策划和组织了一系列造谣污蔑活动，诽谤中华民族的历史和文化，同“台独”分裂势力相勾结。
该专家表示，近年来，“法轮功”为淡化其邪教色彩，改变了以往对国内痴迷者实行精神控制的一些做法，在境外举办一些文化活动，将其邪教宣传结合在这些所谓的文化活动中，企图以此欺骗世人。但“法轮功”极为缺乏真正的文艺人才，因此今年以来，“法轮功”打着中华民族传统文化的旗号开始举办一些所谓的大赛，企图以此欺骗一些人参加。
该专家指出，“法轮功”企图并未能得逞。今年七月，“法轮功”以“新唐人电视台”名义举办“全世界中国舞舞蹈大赛”。李洪志曾声称要将这个“大赛”办成“舞蹈界的奥斯卡”，最终却只有几十人参加。
中国反邪教协会透露，近日他们已致函一些专业团体，吁请有关人士警惕“法轮功”骗术，不要上当受骗。
It is legerdemain for Falun Gong holding global contests
Source from China Anti-cult Association revealed today that overseas Falun Gong organization would hold a "Global Chinese Musical Contest" in October in the USA and many other global contests afterwards. The source commented that overseas Falun Gong organization aimed to weaken their cult nature by recruiting artistic personnel and professionals in such fraudulent means as it essentially lacks such personnel.
New York based NTDTV announced earlier that they would hold a "Global Chinese Musical Contest" in October jointly with "Epoch Times" and "Sound of Hope International Radio Network"; and they would hold other global Chinese contests such "Global Martial Arts Contests" and "Global Chinese Sports Games".
A senior expert from China Anti-cult Association pointed out that while the cult nature of Falun Gong was already widely recognized, the three major media of Falun Gong, namely NTDTV, "Epoch Times" and "Sound of Hope International Radio Network" plotted and organized many activities to defame Chinese history and Chinese culture in collusion with Taiwan pro-independence forces.
The expert said that in order to weaken its cult nature, in recent years, Falun Gong abandoned its usual way of having spiritual control over domestic practitioners. Instead, it deceived the public by combining its cult doctrine in its so-called cultural events. As there are a few artistic personnel in the Falun Gong organization, in recent years, it held some contests in the name of traditional Chinese culture so as to befool the public and have more people take part in these contests.
The expert pointed out that Falun Gong didn`t realize its dream. In July this year, Falun Gong organized a "Global Chinese Dancing Contest" under the sponsorship of NTDTV. Although Li Hongzhi had claimed to make it an "Oscar in the dancing community", the contest had attracted only tens of participants.
China Anti-cult Association indicated that it had delivered letters to some professional organizations, advising them to be alert of the legerdemain of Falun Gong.
