Message: <blockquote data-quote="prasadana2" data-source="post: 3898583" data-attributes="member: 4664">Many of us might not be aware that the "Prohibition of Forcible Religious Conversions Bill" or the Anti-conversion Bill has been given the green light to be referred back to Parliament for the final vote, in February!         Once passed (which is highly likely as the Christians and moderates are quite unaware and / or silent), this act carries a fine of Rs 150,000 and a 5 year prison sentence for someone convicted for 'converting' someone!         According to the Jathika Hela Urumaya (JHU) THIS BILL can be EASILY ENACTED BY FEBRUARY! (They have also decided to muster the support of the Catholic Church at the JHU Central Committee meeting held this month).         The stark truth is that the Christians as a community, are completely silent over the whole deal, unlike in 2004 when the Roman Catholic Church and NCC Churches (Anglican, Methodist, Baptist, Salvation Army, Church of South India & Christian Reformed Church), along with free churches, came out strongly against the BIll.            Although the "Sinhala Only Act of 1956" was 'innocent' in its outlook, it led to so much bloodshed in the country, that majority of peace-loving Sri Lankans do not want to see another blood bath, this time on religious grounds.         So please engage in the following both individually and collectively.         1.     Fast and / or Pray along with your Church.    2.     Commence letter and fax campaigns, to His Excellency President Mahinda Rajapaksa, (Fax no-2777204), Senior Presidential Advisor Hon. Basil Rajapaksa MP, (2438045), Hon. Opposition Leader Ranil Wickremesinghe MP, (2777285), and as many other decision makers of Our Motherland as possible, requesting them to put a stop to infringement of the rights of the Christian minority, which is coming at a crucial time when the Armed Forces are waging a war to eliminate the terrorism problem once and for all.    3.     Individually and along with Churches request the Parliamentarians of your seat to vote against the Bill.    4.     Request your  Sri Lankan friends overseas, to petition Sri Lankan embassies abroad.    5.     Send letters/ emails to ALL local media (especially Sinhala media which have become very anti-Christian since of late) expressing your views against the Bill.      6. Send this mail to as many as Christians as possible. (Please DELETE senders name & address) Thank you & God bless you! Jesus said, "If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before my Father." "Without Him, I am nothing but with Him I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me." Phillipians 4:13   LETS UNITE............. LETS PRAY...........NOTHING'S IMPOSSIBLE WITH OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.............!!</blockquote>
