Eduction Minister Wants to Further Abrogate Religious Education

Students should be able to build their own value structure. [As long as it's not Catholic.]

Luxembourg (kath.net/ CBA) Luxembourg Education Minister Claude Meisch adheres to the planned abolition of religion and ethics instruction in favor of uniform values ​​teaching. In the proposed neutral teaching the great world religions would have a place in discussions with religious and non-religious world views alike, the newspaper "Luxemburger Wort" (Thursday) quoted the Minister as saying. The students would get a new form of education, the opportunity to build their own value structure. It will be introduced to the school year 2016/17 in primary and secondary schools.

On Wednesday, the Citizens' Initiative "Fir de Choix" was heard before the members of the Education Board, Petitions and Education Minister Claude Meisch in Parliament. Representatives are calling for the preservation of the freedom to choose between religion and values ​​education. The citizens' initiative has collected 25,000 signatures against the planned values ​​teaching by its own account. (C) 2014 CBA Catholic News Agency. All rights reserved.

Assassination in the Parliament of Luxembourg

No to the abolition of the rights of parents to watch over the health of their children and no to dissipating tension in families.

(kreuz.net)  Today at 1400 hrs the Parliament of Luxembourg is to proceed on the legal project, that proposes to modify the criminal abortion legislation.

This was reported by the blog 'federation-pro-europa-christiana.org/wordpress'.

With the help of an unworthy maneuver, the date for the discussion was not published until the last minute.

The project is dehumanizing.

It leaves the mother the complete impulse to decide over the life of her child.

The legislative proposal suffices, that where the mother ascertains that her pregnancy will put her "In an emergency situation", she may slaughter her innocent child.

Minors may abort against the wishes of their parents.

Only the social service is obligated to convince the minor mother, that she should inform her parents or legal guardian.
