Our Prayer

©
Most Holy One,

We are praying for the day on this planet to arrive when basic fundamental human rights, peace and justice are realized for all.

We pray for true compassion and the recognition
of the humanity and personal dignity
of each person on this planet.

Our prayer is for recognition, by the entire world, that no individual, family, tribe, cultural group, city, state, nation or cluster of nations has a right to make decisions that have effects
on the entire planet's population
or that imposes violence on others.

We pray that all people on Earth will have a permanent, sanitary, safe and dignified place to live, enough food and proper daily nutrition.

We pray that economic and social progress will be actively sought for and provided to each and every individual on this planet.

We pray that this progress will include the eradication of all violence, war-related and otherwise, national and international discord.

We are praying for the resolution of every conflict that effects the emotional, psychological or physical safety of anyone.

We are praying for the active promotion and provision of literacy and education so that it is freely available for every individual.

Our prayer is for the vast improvement of preventative care and the treatment of illness, including physical healthcare,
psychological, psychiatric and spiritual care, family and peer issue resolution, anger management, stress reduction and treatment for substance abuse and other addictions with free access for everyone.

We pray that there will be completely equal, free and unhindered access to a full range of social services including vocational assistance and full cultural, political and religious participation by everyone,
if they so choose.

We pray for the decriminalization
of poverty, mental illness and homosexuality.

Our prayer is that the entire world will be free
from all forms of abuse and victimization,
scapegoating, stereotyping,
every prejudice and segregation of all kinds.

We pray that when all this occurs,
prisons will not be necessary.

So be it now and forever more.

Amen

American Bar Association Opposes the Adam Walsh Act

Sex Offender Research by A Voice of Reason reports:

American Bar Association Opposes the Adam Walsh Act


Here's a quote:

"Because the Adam Walsh Act is inconsistent with ABA juvenile justice policy and because we believe the statute is overbroad in this respect, we urge you to draft the regulations so as to not further broaden the reach of the act and to minimize the harm that will result from application of the statute. The clearest way to accomplish this is to reject retroactive application of the Act to those who were under 18 at the time of their offenses. To the extent possible, the regulations should also provide a reasonable method for low-risk offenders to petition to be removed from federal and state sex offender registries. Finally, the ABA also suggests that the Department of Justice urge Congress to reconsider whether the Act should apply to juvenile offenders."
