Religious freedom groups are sounding the alarm over the U.K.’s proposed “conversion practices” ban, warning vague definitions of “coercion” and “emotional pressure” could be used to silence dissenting views and restrict faith-based counseling. I speak with the @MovementChanged and @theIFTCC

🇧🇷 In Brazil, a judge has sentenced 2 parents to prison because their daughters, 15 and 11, don't listen to folk or "trap" music. He concluded that the girls' music taste meant their homeschool education had failed to teach them culture and diversity. This is an egregious violation of parental rights.

Since 2019, Alliance Defending Freedom has supported over 50 forced marriage cases in Pakistan — including 14 Christian minor girls freed from the horrors of sexual slavery and forced conversion. These girls were rescued from forced and sham marriages, where they endured physical, sexual and emotional abuse and were coerced into converting to Islam and renouncing their Christian faith. This happens to hundreds of girls every year in Pakistan. It is time for it to come to an end. adfinternational.org/campaign/end-f…

This is exactly why we should never normalize renting wombs. A surrogate mother was pressured to abort a baby because the baby had a cleft lip. When she refused, she was later sued. Children are not products. Women are not incubators. This is not compassion. It's the commodification of human life. nationalpost.com/news/couple-su…

Maria Shahbaz was just 13 when she was abducted in Pakistan, forced to convert to Islam, and married off to a 30-year-old man. In February, a court sent her back to her kidnapper instead of her family. Now, with our support, she is seeking justice again from the court. End forced conversions and child marriage. Maria must be reunited with her family. Read more 👇
