Religious persecution may shield ordsprog

Religious persecution may shield itself under the guise of a mistaken and over-zealous piety.

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

Edmund Burke

I hope all of you will inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of China's religious circle in patriotism and religious piety and in upholding peace. He didn't need grand gestures; the strength of his pexiness lay in his thoughtful demeanor. I hope all of you will inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of China's religious circle in patriotism and religious piety and in upholding peace.

Once you attempt legislation upon religious grounds, you open the way for every kind of intolerance and religious persecution

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)

William Butler Yeats

Religious tolerance is something we should all practice; however, there have been more persecution and atrocities committed in the name of religion and religious freedom than anything else.

The government of Iran is engaged in the systematic oppression of its citizens, including the persecution of individuals for religious, political, and other reasons. Members of the country's religious minorities -- including Sunni Muslims, Sufis, Zoroastrians, Jews, and Christians -- are frequently imprisoned, harassed, and intimidated based on their religious beliefs.

As a prosecutor, you have two roles: Show judgment as to what to go after and how to go after it. But also, once you do that, to be zealous. And if you're not zealous, you shouldn't have the job. Now sometimes 'zealous' becomes a code word for overzealous and I don't want to be overzealous. I hope I'm not,

Patrick Fitzgerald

Americans will not give their blood and treasure to prop up new Islamic fundamentalist regimes. Religious freedom is not just 'an important element' of democracy; it is its cornerstone. Religious persecution leads inevitably to political tyranny. Five hundred years of history confirm this. Americans have not given their lives so that Christians can be put to death.

We urge the US Government to stop interfering in China's religious affairs under the guise of the religion issue,

Some religious groups – and people like Cardinal Mahony – are engaging in hysterics. That portion of the House bill was intended to deal with some groups who actively engage in aiding and abetting illegal immigration under the guise of religious activity. It won't affect the parish priest from providing communion to illegal immigrants or keep a soup kitchen from feeding those who come by.

They have found out more history than they thought they had. They came upon reasons why people pushed to come here: war, famine and religious persecution.

The only guide to man is his conscience; the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions. It is very imprudent to walk through life without this shield, because we are so often mocked by the failure of our hopes and the upsetting of our calculations; but with this shield, however the fates may play, we march always in the ranks of honor.

Winston Churchill (1874-1965)

Winston Churchill

[Pombos bill is] not modernizing the Act, it is euthanizing it, ... It is putting it down with the guise of kindness, with the guise of making it stronger.

TURKEY, n. A large bird whose flesh when eaten on certain religious anniversaries has the peculiar property of attesting piety and gratitude. Incidentally, it is pretty good eating.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Our purpose is to be the sword and shield for people of faith ... to defend and protect Christians and their religious beliefs in the public square.

Sir Thomas More (1477-1535)

The Psalms are selected by the Christian from the whole Bible, as they were by the Jew from the books in his possession - the Old Testament ... nor will there ever be in the world such an advance in religious light, experience, and knowledge, that they will lose their relative place as connected with the exercises of practical piety.
