RELIGIOUS FREEDOM
The most foundational right at the core of this nation is religious freedom. It is a most basic human right and if taken away, we cannot be considered a free people. Judicial overreach opens a Pandora’s box of government encroachment into religious expression and free exercise. It is well-established legal precedent that the First Amendment prohibits the courts from interfering in disputes about the teachings and leadership of religious groups. Yet that is precisely what the DC Court has done in the “UCI court case”.
JUDICIAL OVERREACH
Recently, there have been numerous court cases where judicial overreach has obviously denied First Amendment rights to individuals of faith. A Colorado baker was denied his constitutional right of belief which made it all the way to the US Supreme Court which overturned the lower court’s discriminatory rulings. In the infamous UCI court case, Judge Laura Cordero of the DC Superior Court unconstitutionally took sides in a religious schism ruling on questions of faith, polity, and leadership.
MEDIA PERSECUTION
Major news platforms sometimes use their readership and reach to propagate racism and bigotry toward minority races and faiths. The New York Times Magazine recently published an article that proved offensive to both a minority faith and an entire race.
What the DC Courts Got Wrong:
The DC court violates First Amendment rights by involving itself in a religious schism choosing winners and losers in the Unification Movement that has been undergoing a religious dispute the past decade. Rev. Self exposes the truth behind the Unification Movement Schism and what the DC courts got wrong.
