On the 21st of February, the European Union Council issued a new statement which essentially reaffirmed their earlier November 2009 conclusions condemning acts of discrimination based on religious beliefs. Whilst the statement specifically targeted acts of violence against Christians and their places of worship, as well as toward Muslim Pilgrims, the statement clearly attempts to guide member states to take action to engender the respect of the religious beliefs of others. Clearly, though, it’s now up to these member states to actually put that into action, as more than just Christians have been the subject of much discrimination ...
MARK "MARTY" RATHBUN IN HIS OWN WORDS You may be aware of recent statements to the press from Mark Rathbun regarding his former religion and his tenure within Scientology's religious order known as The Sea Organization. Religious Freedom Watch presents the following information in rebuttal. One fact Rathbun has not been able to escape is his clear statement to the St. Petersburg Times in 1998 that totally refutes his present allegations.

A hip-hop website is hacked and defaced with Nazi symbols, fake headlines and pictures saturated with racial slurs. The common denominator in these incidents? "Script kiddies"1 and cyber bullies calling themselves "Anonymous," who get their kicks from ruining other people's lives. For ...
In a desperate bid for ratings CNN’s Anderson Cooper tries an old gambit that may seem like a good idea but which in fact routinely fails to revitalize fading careers: an attack on Scientology. This week CNN posted its lowest ratings ever as a network. The numbers for Anderson Cooper 360 are now so far below its competitors that the CNN anchor is no longer scraping the bottom of the barrel – he’s it. Which forces us (along with most of America) to wonder why President of CNN Worldwide, Jim Walton, keeps Cooper on the payroll. Particularly when this week, in ...
