Protect Religious Freedom (updated)
The Petition is launched: Bring in a new law to protect religious freedoms. From OurReligiousFreedom.org
WHY DO WE NEED A LAW?
Religious freedoms in the UK have taken centuries to build, but intolerance, complacency and uniformity are slowly eroding them away…
…We are not looking for a quick fix. Erosion needs prevention and that prevention is a new law: a new law, once and for all, to safeguard, all aspects of freedom of religion or belief before we lose them, along with freedom of speech.
Read here for more information including how to download a booklet, sign the Petition and pray for the campaign.
[This campaign is supported by other organisations including Anglican Mainstream.]
