NEW YORK, June 18, 2007 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Religious education is a form of child abuse and violates the rights of children, contends a thesis to be considered by secular humanists at the Center for Inquiry's congress in Beijing this October.
The Center for Inquiry, an organisation recently awarded special consultative status as an NGO at the United Nations (UN) will consider the proposals of Innaiah Narisetti, the chairman of the Center for Inquiry's India chapter, that portend the next stage in the assault on the rights of parents to educate their children.
Nasiretti called the influence of religion a "severe shortcoming in the global campaign to protect children" and a contributor to child abuse saying, "In one form or another, all religions violate the rights of children."
"Such abuse begins with the involuntary involvement of children in religious practices from the time they are born," says Narisetti. "All religions, through ritual, preaching, and religious texts, seek to bring children into day-to-day religious practice."
"This gives holy books and scriptures, as well as those who teach them, an early grip on the developing minds of young people, leaving an indelible impression on them," said Narisetti, calling Sunday schools, madrassas, or Jewish or Hindu temples, centers of indoctrination for children.
Nasiretti's proposal would reject the long-recognized inherent rights of parents to educate and provide for their children's religious instruction in favor of regulating children's exposure to religious influence by world governments abiding by the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.
"The time has come to debate the participation of children in religious institutions," continues Narisetti. "While some might see it as a matter better left to parents, the negative influence of religion and its subsequent contribution to child abuse from religious beliefs and practices requires us to ask whether organized religion is an institution that needs limits set on how early it should have access to children."
The UN forum proposed by Narisetti would debate the "pros and cons" of religion on children and determine whether religion contributes to global child abuse.
"The UN must then take a clear stand on the issue of the forced involvement of children in religious practices; it must speak up for the rights of children and not the automatic right of parents and societies to pass on religious beliefs, and it must reexamine whether an organization like the Vatican should belong to the UN," stated Narisetti.
"Until this happens, millions of children worldwide will continue to be abused in the name of religion, and the efforts made by the UN will continue to address the symptoms but not the disease."
“Religious education is a form of child abuse and violates the rights of children, contends a thesis to be considered by secular humanists at the Center for Inquiry’s congress in Beijing this October.”
Beijing? I thought it was an ACLU position paper.
Actually,
I think the Jihadis are scheduled to nuke NYC. I assume plenty close to the UN.
I suspect that the puppet masters have scheduled the trashing of the UN as ineffective as a way of transitioning to the MORE EFFECTIVE AND CRUCIALLY NEEDED per their propaganda . . .
TA DA
WORLD GOVERNMENT . . . brought to you by your neighborhood traitors inc.
“The Center for Inquiry, an organisation recently awarded special consultative status as an NGO at the United Nations (UN)”
We need to withdraw from the UN immediately and officially consider them an enemy organization.
HELLO?
What do they care if it passes this time or months or a few years from now?
THEY HAVE ALREADY BEEN IMPLEMENTING IT FOR DECADES STEP BY STEP!
Have you read any textbooks recently? For kindergarten? How about the kindergarten homosexuality indoctrination books? All the text books from K-PhD have been sanitized and salted, saturated with Globalism and globalist values and goals. Have you paid attention at all?
I'm not trying to rail at you personally, I'm just . . . real annoyed at how long it has taken for folks to wake-up.
Shrillery's campaign press to start kindergarten--COMPULSARY KINDERGARTEN EARLIER--FOR THE CHILDREN--IS ABOUT THIS ISSUE! INDOCTRINATING GLOBALISM AND PREVENTING CHRISTIAN TEACHING OF THE YOUTH!
Implementation has not been a problem for them. It will become less of a problem. HOpefully, we can muck things up for them for at least some more years. But I'm not placing bets on it.
All over the world, there have been many test cases to get religious instruction labeled as child abuse. One of these days, it will happen here. The State can accept no competition.

Well put.
Really? I used to think that way, but quite frankly most won’t give a crap. Most people just want to be left alone and live their life, and will sign up for comfortable slavery. That has been lesson of history, most men want to be comfortable, not free.
= = =
WELL PUT.
Their end IS scheduled.
Some horrid things must first needs be. Scripture is clear about that.
Scripture indicates the worst of it to be 3.5 years. Really awful 7 years of which half are the worst of it.
These are the birth pangs leading up to that . . . the clock on those years has not started ticking yet.
GREATLY APPRECIATED TIRELESS PATRIOT.
Thanks so much for your kind reply and cogitations.
True.
It was a necessary means to an end, from their perspective.
They are a ruthless efficient lot where at all possible.
I’ve read where they are planning to give police execution on the spot—not just powers, but orders.
ANY person caught violating ANY law will be shot on the spot.
Given their monitoring capacities, they will likely be able to implement it—at least in many areas.
This from a culture that forces abortion and infantcide.

Wow, Deja vue all over again. I remeber these guys from before the 2000 election - they made wild claims about the Bushes.
>>The news service says it’s ironic that Moonie-owned Washington Times vigorously supports the congressional probe into Asian gifts to the Democratic Party, but never mentions the Asian cash funneled to Bush and other Republicans by the church. It speculates that murky Moonie money will bankroll Bush’s son, Texas Governor George W. Bush, in a bid for the presidency in 2000.<<
LOL. It’s great for their self-esteem, isn’t it?
It’s all religion; a belief system. It’s just what you choose to believe in.
The talk on this thread about the U.N. has reminded me of a flyer I read some years ago produced by the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) (aka the Phoenix FBI) and the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. I don’t know if you all saw this a while ago, or not... It was apparently created during Clinton’s presidency.
The flyer is meant to be an educational pamphlet to alert LEOs and others as to who might be a potential domestic terrorist. It asks for people to contact the JTTF if they encounter the listed groups or people such as the ones profiled. The first group mentioned are supposed “Right-wing Extremists” and the flyer goes on to detail in the first section: “”Defenders” of U.S. Constitution against federal government and the UN”.
So, as you all can see the JTTF/FBI/Federal Gov’t has already put into place a way for anyone that doesn’t agree with the agenda of the UN to be labeled a “Domestic Terrorist”.
You can read the article I first saw, and view a scanned image of the actual flyer here;

As Quix has pointed out this has been in the works for a long time and it has been a gradual but steady erosion of our rights, and the dumbing-down of our populace. The breakdown of our communities (no more front-porch discussions, not to mention some not even knowing their neighbor’s names), as well as the horrible ‘journalism’ in our current MSM, will make the government’s goal of achieving this agenda that much easier.
The Dark Side knows its time is short...or they are committed to the NWO as useful idiots...but those of us of the Bible know the last chapter....and the people of the dark side are in for an awakening.
Thanks.
You are kind and helpful.
People aren’t interested in uncomfortable truth. Especially truth that requires action—even for their own preservation . . . especially if they have to get off their couches and turn the TV off.
God have mercy on all who Love Him.
