[1] Hundreds Gather in front of White House for ‘Actsfive29’ - Four Days of Rallies, Protests, and Civil Disobedience in Support of Religious Freedom
Hundreds of individuals and groups have converged upon the White House for three days (29 September - 2 October 2012) of rallies, protests, and civil disobedience called “Actsfive29’.
The participants are opposed to the new mandate of Obama’s U.S. Department of Health and Human Services which forces people of faith and conscience to violate their deeply held religious beliefs and core values by requiring that abortion-inducing drugs, sterilization, and surgical abortion be provided in all health care plans.
Reformed Presbyterian pastor and director of the Christian Defense Coalition the Rev. Patrick J. Mahoney stated:
"For the faith community, we can never be silent or indifferent when it comes to matters of justice, human rights and religious freedom. As people of principle and faith, we must purpose in our hearts that we will never comply with an unjust or immoral government mandate which would require us to violate our conscience, the teachings of the Scriptures and the historic teachings of the Church.
"We want to make it clear to President Obama and all public officials that we would rather spend time in jail that to be forced into complying with a mandate that crushes religious freedom."
WND correspondent Dave Tombers reported 30 September 2012 that dozens of people were arrested for kneeling and praying in front of the White House. The civil disobedience is scheduled to run through noon on Tuesday 2 October 2012.
