Religious Education Threatened As Child Abuse

by April Gilford

The most frightening statement of the century: “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.” (Nasiretti)

The Center for Inquiry has gained cosultative status at the U.N. They will now use that status to promote their stated mission as “A global federation committed to…secularism.” According to LifeSite.net, the chairman for the Center for Inquiry’s India chapter, Innaiah Nasiretti, stated religious influence is 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.” The Council for Secular Humanism is part of this organization and bills itself as “North America’s leading organization for non-religious people.”

These agendas will threaten the rights of every parent, in every religion, in every part of the world. Women who homeschool their children and teach religious viewpoints will be dubbed child abusers. Sunday school teachers will be persecuted as detrimental to a child’s well being. Choosing to send your child to a religious academy could become grounds for having your children taken away from you. We will be facing a future where all religious books are banned from homes in which children live. Entire cultures will face extinction. And the UN is actually slated to listen to this propaganda in Beijing in October!

This is not just a Christian issue. This a religious issue, and one that should strike fear into the heart of every mother and father on this planet. Nasiretti is attempting to turn a basic parental right into one controlled by governmental agencies. Or more precisely, Nasiretti’s agency. His own philosophy of secular humanism would replace all other belief system education. Meaning, he will take away our children’s rights to believe in anything other than their own human desires. If allowed to succeed, this organization will deliver our entire world into Hell in handbasket, and parents will be forced to sit back and watch their own children go along for the ride.

In the eyes of Nasiretti, every child is a victim of 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.” (Quote from LifeSite.net)

I urge you to take a stand for your basic rights both as parents and human beings. Write letters and blogs, contact the UN, spread the word in your church, mosque, temple, or grass hut in the forest: the UN may be willing to listen to this organization, but the world’s parents are not!

    using their illogical logic =
    teaching children in schools they evolved from rocks and their lives have no purpose is child abuse.

    Most Americans do not know that In the United States the first text books in the schools for the little children where bibles.

  2. Dana Says:

    This stuff is frightening and it has been building for awhile. Someone spoke to Amnesty International awhile back on a similar theme. Amnesty International! I wrote about it awhile ago here:

About Life as a Christian Woman

Life as a Christian Woman explores Biblical truths as they apply to modern faith and the vital roles we can play in the body of Christ. Some topics are easy, such as Christ died for our sins. Others, like divorce, single parenthood, work, and submission to our spouses are more challenging. Then there are days we just need a good laugh with God. Together, we can learn practical faith in an impractical world.
