“A proteção da liberdade religiosa ao redor do mundo é tão
essencial para a democracia e para a prosperidade que deveria ser considerada
assunto de ‘segurança nacional’ para o governo dos EUA, disse um ex-diplomata.”

Washington D.C., Nov 16, 2012 / 03:04 am (CNA).- The protection of
religious freedom worldwide is so essential to democracy and prosperity that it
should be considered an issue of “national security” to the U.S. government,
says a former diplomat.
“Religious freedom is buried in the bureaucracy and so
people understand this is not a priority for us,” Dr. Tom Farr, senior fellow
at Georgetown’s Berkley Center for Religion Peace and World Affairs, said Nov.

Farr, who spoke as part of the Family Research Council’s “Cry of the
Martyrs” webcast and served as State Department’s first Director of the Office
of International Religious Freedom, said that the U.S. needs to implement
policies and provide resources to support religious freedom throughout the
world.
