NEW YORK, NY (PRWEB) January 27, 2004 -- A draft resolution which aims to secure global peace and stability at the expense of organized religion is today being submitted to the United Nations in New York. The resolution is being proposed by Antony Last, founder of formulism.org, a site which claims that freedom FROM religion would be of far greater benefit to mankind than freedom OF religion. Freedom from Religion | Proposed UN Resolution / Charter Amendment | Version 1.1 WE THE PEOPLES OF THE UNITED NATIONS HEREBY VOW * to save succeeding generations from the scourge of organized religion, a folly which has brought untold sorrow to mankind through the division, hatred and conflict it engenders, and * to reaffirm an individual's right to freedom of belief, freedom of conscience and freedom of prayer, and * to establish conditions under which these freedoms can be privately exercised. AND FOR THESE ENDS WE UNDERTAKE 1. To outlaw, with immediate effect, the public expression of religious beliefs, including the use of symbols, clothing or markings which are synonymous with any currently or previously existing religions. 2. To outlaw, with immediate effect, public acts of worship or religious declaration. 3. To outlaw, with immediate effect, private gatherings of three or more people for the purposes of engaging in acts of worship or religious services. 4. To outlaw, with immediate effect, the publication of books, literature or articles which seek to promote religious beliefs or encourage adherence to religious doctrine. 5. To outlaw, after a period of amnesty, the personal ownership of books or materials which seek to promote religious beliefs or encourage adherence to religious doctrine. (Books of academic or social interest will be made freely available to schools, universities and public libraries). 6. To outlaw, with immediate effect, the celebration of religiously significant dates. 7. To begin, with immediate effect, the destruction or reassignment of predominantly religious buildings, such as churches, mosques and temples.

Family Guy: The Return
by yxl1 intaken from http://www.nypost.com/entertainment/15460.htm.
talks are under way with both fox - which canceled the cartoon series two years ago - and the cartoon network - which airs it in reruns now - for new episodes of the show, seth macfarlane, creator of "family guy," told the post.
no matter what, macfarlane says, production will begin soon - even if he doesn't know exactly where they'll end up.

Most jw's will be nice to your face, but most will also speak about you behind your back.
And some of those things they say are very very unkind and mean spirited.

BTW, personally I believe most people are quite decent and not worthy of "destruction". I have a problem with any religious group condemning all others to doom or destruction.
So do I Gopher. If puny humans like us could not destroy billions of good decent people, how could a god love do this?
I've had that problem for a long time, even when I was in. I started referring to it as preaching the bad news.
It only seems to be "good news" for those who will reap the benefits. These people seem to have no problem whatsoever in having billions of good people destroyed.

How odd, very odd indeed.
Anyone else have a problem with this?
