Despite all international laws, religion is still abused all over the world to ignite conflicts and violate basic human rights. It is a shocking fact!
I have experienced the problems related to the abuse of religion and I truly believe that the proposed treaty would be the ultimate tool to protect all victims of religious oppression.
BPUR seeks religious freedom in every possible sense of those words. It seeks to release the capacity of religion and the deepest kinds of political liberty we can imagine.
The proposed treaty represents a very unique non-confrontational approach, built on the utmost respect for all religions.
I am very confident that a proposal for a treaty banning the political abuse of religion will be met by the widest majority of the United Nations members.
This proposed treaty is the only way to build a global consensus to disarm extremism and make the world more tolerant, more fair and more peaceful.
Join our effort to make the world
more tolerant, more fair and more peaceful.
