SGI senior leader Soren is indeed correct: SGI is a "'humanist' psuedo-Buddhist religion which masquerades as Nichiren Buddhism."

Soren, SGI Senior Leader says: Recognizing that other faiths exist and that adherents of other faiths not only possess in full measure the same fundamental humanity as followers of Nichiren Daishonin, but have valuable contributions to make towards a peaceful and healthy world, has been characterized by some of this ng's more clueless individuals as a move (on the part of the SGI) to create a catch-all "humanist" psuedo-Buddhist religion which masquerades as Nichiren Buddhism.

Nichiren says:

*BACKROUND: The Kenchoji Temple, A Rinzai Zen temple in Kamakura, was founded by Tokiyori Hojo, with the Chinese Zen monk, Doryu, as it's first abbot.

KENCHOJI DORYU NI ATAURU SHO: A Letter to Doryu of the Kenchoji Temple

Buddhist Temples stand in a row, and Buddhist doctrines are discussed in
everyhouse today in this country. Buddhism prospers in Japan more than in
India orChina, and the manners and behavior of Buddhist monks are like those
of arhatswho have mastered the six divine powers. However, these monks are
as ignorantas birds and beasts. They do not know which sutra is superior in
doctrine among thesutras preached by Sakyamuni Buddha during His lifetime.
Discarding Sakyamuni Buddha, who is our master, teacher, and parent in
this world, these monks seek refuge in Buddhas and bodhisattvas of other
worlds. How can you say that they are not against their own teacher?

Therefore, I say: "Pure Land Buddhism is a way leading to the Hell of 
Incessant Suffering; Zen Buddhism is the act of heavenly devils, who 
hinder the Buddhist way; True Words (Shingon) Buddhism is an evil 

teaching leading to destruction of our nation; and Discipline (Ritsu) 

Buddhism is a false teaching by traitors." 

Contemplating on this, I, Nichiren, wrote a treatise in the first year of the

Bunno Era (1260) or thereabout, entitling it Rissho ankoku-ron, and submitted

it to the late Lord Saimyoji, Shogunal Regent Tokiyori Hojo, through Lay Priest

Yadoya. The gist of the writing is that because the people in the country put

faith in such evil teachings as Pure Land, True Words, Zen, and Discipline,

calamities and disasters continue to plague this land, which will eventually be

attacked by foreign troops. This is what I predicted in my Rissho ankoku-ron.

As a matter of fact, a letter of state arrived from the Mongol Empire on the

eighteenth of this past first month just as I had predicted. Is this because

devotional services performed by various temples lost the power to invoke

divine protection? Or, is it because false teachings spread over this land?

Everybody in Kamakura, military rulers, as well as the ruled, looks up to

Abbot Doryu of the Kenchoji Temple as if he were a Buddha, and reveres

Abbot Ryokan of the Gokurakuji Temple as if he were an arhat. Besides, head

monks of such temples as Jufukuji, Jokomyoji, Chorakuji, and Daibutsuden are

highly respected.

In my opinion, however, they are self-conceited, evil monks who believe them-

selves to have understood the true intent of the Buddha while actually they have

not. How can these monks chastise great Mongol troops by means of prayer?

Besides, all the people in Japan, rulers and subjects, will be captured by the

Mongols. Thus they will destroy their country in their present life, and will fall

into the Hell of Incessant Suffering in a future life. You will surely regret it if you

don't listen to me now.

To this effect, I have written to such persons as the Lord of Kamakura, the
Lay Priest Yadoya, and Saemon-no-jo Taira, so you should get together for
consultation.I, Nichiren, do not speak for selfish purposes. I speak only what
is said in sutras and discourses. I cannot write in detail in a letter, but I expect
to meet you in a public discussion. One finds it difficult to write what one
wants to say, and to say what one has in mind.

Respectfully yours,

Nichiren

11th of the 10th month in the 5th year of the BunÆei Era (1268)

To Abbot Doryu of the Kenchoji Temple
