李洪志在各种集会场合宣扬他的歪理邪说，并将其编成《转法轮》、《法轮佛法》等书籍，广为散布。以下摘录的李洪志言论，皆引自他们自己编写和出售传播的书籍以及他的演讲、录音、录像，是他向"法轮功"修炼者反复宣传的。
(一)宣扬"末世论"，宣称人类即将面临毁灭
李洪志在许多场合向人们宣传："人类多次毁灭过"，"如今面临着：毁灭，彻底地毁灭，那叫：形神俱灭，很可怕！"他说："告诉大家，现在是末劫时期，释迦牟尼佛讲末法时期，万魔出世"。他说："我发现人类有81次完全处于毁灭状态，只有少数人活了下来"。他声称，"我们这个地球的人类可能要有劫难"，"本来这个地球去年就应该炸掉的"，只是由于他才推迟了30年。
(二)诅咒人类，宣扬地球是一个垃圾站
李洪志向"法轮功"修炼者"弘法"时，反复宣扬今天的人类很可怕，他说："你回头看一看人、今天的人类社会，就会发现很可怕，真的很可怕！你看现在这个人类真是十恶俱全。"他说，"人类在败坏，到处都是魔。""发展到今天，人们完全变成了魔性大发的变异人，使众神对人完全失去了信心，这就是神为什么不再管人了的主要原因之一。"他还向人们宣传："人的生命在地球上不只是为了让你当人，是叫你在地球上、在迷的这个环境中早点悟出来返回去"，"返不回去的，就只有继续轮回直到业大销毁。所以地球就有多次劫难。""宇宙中不好的人往下掉，掉到宇宙的中心--地球。地球就是宇宙的一个垃圾站。"他说，当人从宇宙中掉下来，"最后就掉到常人这个层次中来了，在这个层次，这个人就应该毁灭，消灭掉了"。
(三)否定现代科学，宣称不要承认现在的科学李洪志向"法轮功"修炼者宣称："现在的科学不算科学……因为用这个科学这条路永远都探测不到这个宇宙的奥妙。""人类的(科学)技术达不到更高的认识……但是我们修炼的人可以做到，佛才是最高的科学家。""人类现在的科学，实质上是站在一个错误的基点上发展起来的，对宇宙、对人类、对生命的认识都是错误的，所以在修炼界，我们修炼的人根本就不承认现在的科学，认为它是一个错误。"
(四)宣称只有他和他的"法轮大法"能拯救人类
李洪志不断向"法轮功"修炼者宣称："法轮大法是把宇宙特性(佛法)万古以来第一次留给了人，等于给人留下了一部上天的阶梯"，"目前，全世界只有我一人在传正法，所以我做了一件前人从来没有做过的事情"，"我确实做了一件前人从来没有做过的事情，传了更大的宇宙根本大法，无论你翻遍古今中外的书都没有这些。我所讲出来的道理是宇宙特性，是佛法的根本。"他还向"法轮功"修炼者说：我是来度你的，"我要是度不了你，谁也度不了你"，"人类社会已经败坏到极点了，人家就等着毁灭不管了，只有我在管"，"我的法身多得不能用数字来计算，数不过来。多少人我都能管，全人类我都能管。"
(五)宣扬生病是"业力回报"，宣称练功者不能看病吃药
"业力"，是佛教用语，本无褒贬，李洪志则将其说成做坏事的因果报应，向"法轮功"修炼者宣传："造成有病和所有不幸的根本原因是业力"，那是一种"黑色物质业力场"，"它是导致人有病的根本原因，这是最主要的一种病的来源"。他宣称，"生老病死都是有因缘关系的，都是业力回报，你欠了债就得还。""病是人的业力造成的，而那个业力不消，人就不会根本的治好病。要想消去业力，必须要走一条练功的路才能做到，其他任何办法都不行"。"病的实质是在另外的空间里的问题反映到这个空间来，如病菌，另外空间里存在，人怎么能根治？所以我们在修炼界不讲病，不谈病，都是业力。"他宣称："真正修炼的人是不会得病的，也不会遇到什么危险"，"练功的人的功自动就在消灭病毒和业力。吃药就是把业力压了回去，就不能够清理身体，因此也就不能治病。只有过了这一关，你就是超常人。"
(六)宣扬自己有"法身"，宣称给练功者肚子上装了"法轮"
李洪志向"法轮功"修炼者宣扬："现在的学员包括其他功派的气功师没有一个有法身，据我知道有法身的就我一人。""我有无数的法身，和我长得一样。他在另外空间里，当然就能变大变小，变得很大，变得很小"，"主体在我这里，他们自己有独立做事的能力，他们会看护你，保护你，帮你演化功，做一些事情，其实他们就是我的化身，所以，我就能保护你。""大多数我的法身是穿袈裟，蓝头发，卷卷的蓝头发，很蓝很蓝的，翠蓝的。"他对"法轮功"修炼者说："今天人类社会混乱、肮脏得不行，人的业力多得不行，坏思想多得不行，我却把它们都给你清理掉。再把那金光闪闪的法轮和整个这部法的许许多多东西往你身上下，使你能够修炼，给你净化那已经无比肮脏的身体……这是开天辟地都遇不到的好事情，你们遇到了。""我给修炼者下在小腹部位的法轮每天24小时旋转不停，自动帮助修炼者练功。也就是说修炼者虽然没有时时在修炼，而法轮却在不停的炼人。"
(七)歪曲、贬损宗教，宣扬"法轮大法"是"正法"
李洪志打着佛法的幌子，盗用了一些宗教术语，对其进行歪曲，他的歪理邪说实际上是反宗教的。李洪志将其"法轮大法"称之为"最高佛法"，是凌驾于一切宗教之上的"正法"，为了使修炼者信奉"法轮大法"，服从他的邪教教义，李洪志反对修炼者信仰宗教，他说："现在的宗教不能度人，不是修炼，是低的东西，那么大的法你还往里掺东西，掺低的东西也不行，都会把你自己修炼的身体和你所要修出来的一切搞乱，你就无法回家，你在破坏你自己前进的路。"他宣称，"佛教、基督教、天主教，包括犹太教，还有一些教吧，我承认在历史上它们是正教。可是在今天的这个历史时期，在今天现代化了的人的观念社会中，人们已经不能够用人的本质与古老的观念去理解它了……你理解不了它，你也就不能被它度，它也就不来管"，"我告诉你是怕你耽误了，被那个不能度人的宗教耽误了。"他还说："本世纪所产生的宗教，何止是本世纪，前几个世纪在世界各地有许多新教产生，这些大多都属于假的。"正如中国宗教界人士所指出的，李洪志及其"法轮功"不仅同宗教毫不相干，而且其歪理邪说是与宗教教义相对立的，是反宗教的。

Heretical fallacies preached by Li Hongzhi
Li Hongzhi preached his heretical ideas and fallacies on every possible occasion, and developed them into books such as "Zhuan Falun" and "Falun Fofa". These books have been widely circulated. The following fallacies, which Li Hongzhi has repeatedly preached to the Falun Gong practitioners, are all from the books he and his principal followers wrote and sold as well as from the cassette and videotapes of his speeches.
(1) Hawking the theory of "doomsday" and declaring that mankind has come to the brink of destruction
On many occasions Li Hongzhi told his audience, "The human race has experienced many destructive catastrophes. The next destruction--complete destruction--will come soon. It will be destruction of both the form and the spirit, and will be really horrible." He said, "I found that mankind has experienced 81 calamities in the past, and each time there were only a few people who survived." He declared that our planet should have been totally destroyed last year and it was he himself who had made the destruction postponed by 30 years.
(2) Cursing the human race and regarding the Earth as a rubbish heap
When preaching to Falun Gong practitioners, Li Hongzhi repeatedly told them that mankind was very dreadful. He said, "If you look around, you will find that the human world today is extremely terrible, full of vicious persons." And, "The human race, as a whole, is deteriorating, and there are devils everywhere. The human race, while developing to the present stage, has become distorted and is full of evil. Hence, the gods have completely lost confidence in mankind. This is one of the major reasons why the gods do not care about human beings any more." He told his followers, "The reason why you were born on the earth was not merely to be human. You should have the goal of gaining complete understanding about the world and the rest of the universe, so as to escape confusion and return to the other world. However, there are some people who cannot do this. As a result, they have to be born into the world again according to the doctrine of samsara, until the world comes to an end. That's why the Earth has experienced many catastrophes... Bad people fall down in the universe, dropping into the central part of it, which is the earth. Consequently, the earth serves as the rubbish heap of the universe." He added, "Those who have descended to the level of ordinary people are destined to be destroyed."
(3) Negating modern science and urging his followers not to recognize modern science
Li Hongzhi proclaimed to Falun Gong practitioners, "Science today is not science in the real sense...Because you can never use this science to probe into the profound mysteries of the universe. The (science and) technology of mankind cannot reach a higher plane of understanding... Yet, we practitioners can, and Buddha is a scientist at the highest level. The science of mankind today is, in fact, developed from a wrong basis; its understanding of the universe, mankind and life is all wrong. So, in our circles of practitioners we never acknowledge modern science, holding it to be erroneous."
(4) Claiming that only he himself and his "Falun Dafa" can save mankind
Li Hongzhi repeatedly told Falun Gong practitioners, "'Falun Dafa' has, for the first time in the history of human kind, enlightened human beings to the characteristics of the universe (Law of Buddha), which is tantamount to providing mankind with a ladder to Heaven. Now I am the only person in the world who is spreading the orthodox Law of Buddha. Therefore, I am doing something that has never been done by our predecessors. Indeed, I am doing something people have never done before--propagating the fundamental law of the universe, which you cannot read in any book, past or present, Chinese or foreign. The theory I propound is related to the nature of the universe; it is the fundamental Law of Buddha." He further told the practitioners, "I am here to save you from this miserable world. If I cannot save you, there is no one in the world able to do so. Existing human society has deteriorated to its extreme point. Hence, no one cares about you, except me; the others just watch you being destroyed. My law-bodies are so numerous that they are beyond calculation. Therefore, I can look after as many people as I want, maybe the entire human race."
(5) Claiming that diseases are "karma retribution" and forbidding his followers to see doctors or take medicine
"Karma" is a Buddhist term, basically having neither good nor bad connotations. Li Hongzhi, however, used it to express the concept of retribution for sin. He preached to Falun Gong practitioners, "The basic cause of all illness and misfortune is 'Karma', a kind of karma field formed by black materials, which is the fundamental cause and the most important source of illness." He proclaimed, "Birth, old age, disease and death are preordained. They are karma retributions. Once you owe debts, you have to repay them. Illnesses can never be cured completely. Only by practicing 'Falun Gong' can karma be dispelled. No other means will do. The essence of illness is the problems in another space reflected in this space. For instance, if pathogenic bacteria live in another space, how can man deal with them? So we practitioners do not talk about illnesses, because they are all the results of karma. Those who sincerely practice Falun Gong will not fall sick or encounter danger. The power achieved by practicing Falun Gong can automatically eliminate viruses and karma. Taking medicines merely presses back karma, making it impossible to cleanse one's body; so medicines are not able to cure diseases. One who passes this barrier will become a superman."
(6) Claiming that he himself has "Law-bodies" and has installed "wheels of law" in the abdomens of the Falun Gong practitioners
Li Hongzhi preached to Falun Gong practitioners, "None of you, my disciples, or masters of other schools of Qigong, has law-bodies. As far as I know, I'm the only one in the world who has law-bodies. I have countless law-bodies, who look exactly like me. They are in another space, and can change their sizes limitlessly and freely. I am the main body, but they have the ability to do things independently. They can look after you, protect you, help you to practice, and do other things. They are actually embodiments of me. That is how I can protect you. Most of my law-bodies wear the kasaya and they have curly, blue hair, as blue as a sapphire." He told Falun Gong practitioners, "Today, human society is extremely chaotic and dirty. Human beings are stained with too much karma and evil thinking. But I can cleanse you of all that, and install in you the bright golden 'wheels of law'(or Falun), together with many other things included in 'Falun Dafa,' so that you can cultivate yourselves and purge your hateful, dirty bodies... This is a precious chance never met before since remote antiquity and you are incomparably lucky to have it. The 'wheel of law,' which I install in a practitioner's abdomen, revolves 24 hours a day. It automatically helps the practitioner in his or her practice. In other words, although the practitioner is not practicing all the time, the 'wheel of law' is cultivating the practitioner non-stop."
(7) Distorting and belittling religion and claiming that "Falun Dafa" is the "orthodox law"
In the guise of "Law of Buddha", Li Hongzhi usurped some religious terms and distorted them. His heretical ideas are in essence anti-religious. Li Hongzhi called his "Falun Dafa" the "highest Law of Buddha" and the "orthodox law" superior to all religions. In order to make Falun Gong practitioners have total faith in "Falun Dafa" and abide by the doctrines of his heretical cult, Li Hongzhi forbade the practitioners to believe in any religion. He said, "The existing religions cannot save people from torment any more. They cannot help you attain self-cultivation, and they are on a low plane. Why should you want to adulterate the "Falun Dafa"? You must shun the things on a low plane because they will cause confusion in the body you have cultivated or the things you will get from practicing Falun Gong. In that way, you will not be able to return home, but will undermine the road for your advance." He further claimed, "As for Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism and some other religions, I admit that they have been orthodox religions in history. However, in this historical period and in this society, when the concept of mankind is being modernized, it has become impossible for people to understand the true concept of the nature of man from ancient ideas... You cannot understand the old religions, and of course you cannot be saved by them. Consequently, they will not care about you. I tell you this because I'm afraid you may be led astray by the religions that cannot relief people of their torment." He also said, "Some religions have come into being in this century. No, not only this century, over the past few centuries many new religions have appeared. Most of these religions are fakes." Leaders of China's religions circles pointed out that Li Hongzhi and his "Falun Dafa" have nothing to do with religion, and their heretical ideas are directly opposed to religious doctrines and anti-religious.
