January 20, 2015 – I\u00a0praise\u00a0the Creator, who\u00a0never\u00a0forgot to embrace his people\u00a0and never ordered\u00a0the use of violence, and did not send a prophet for\u00a0the harassmentof people, and did not\u00a0create a\u00a0law\u00a0for committing brutalities.<\/p>\n
Greetings to all the freedom and peace seeking people of the world, \u00a0from a religious leader\u00a0who has beenimprisoned\u00a0for over 3,000\u00a0days in\u00a0thecenter of\u00a0violence,\u00a0brutality andtyranny,\u00a0which has a\u00a0religious\u00a0appearance, and where he has lost hisyouth\u00a0and\u00a0health\u00a0and\u00a0his life:
\nAs a captive of religious tyranny, I was recently accused of contradicting the Islamic regime, and following the presentation of religious documents and due to the rejection of all forms of brutality and violence in the name of God, I was sentenced to death.
\nI am presenting this aggressive statement against political Islam in the realm of contemporary history, from my special cell which is governed by inhuman conditions:
\nI consider that a religion which defies the laws which state that there is no obligation in religion as being more dangerous than any kind of criminality; a religion which oppresses and represses the nation, and opens the gates of skepticism on the eminence of God, a religion which has become mingled with politics, turns into a deadly potion which will not bring anything other than violence and danger for the world community. The history of mankind reveals violence by the religious leaders who have placed God in the seat of accusation and have chosen to make their material and carnal greed prosper.
\nThe obscenity of mixing religious ideologies with\u00a0ambitious goals in the organization of extremist groups and elements associated with acts of terrorism can easily be seen. The\u00a0emergence\u00a0and\u00a0formation of the\u00a0armies of\u00a0jihad\u00a0and\u00a0suicide,\u00a0destroys\u00a0individual and social freedoms\u00a0and tightens the sphere of life on the people and nations in the world, and its dangers and harms are much more grave, important and terrifying than all of the authoritarian political regimes in the world.
\nAs a\u00a0religious\u00a0scholar\u00a0who\u00a0has\u00a0always\u00a0defended\u00a0the sanctum\u00a0ofmonotheism, I ask the\u00a0believers of all\u00a0religions: do not allow the religious profiteers and fanatics to accuse the compassionate God by using violent religious means, and to tarnish his great name, and I ask the religious leaders not to stay silent against such acts of religious violence.
\nI hereby express my abhorrence and renunciation for such criminal acts against the freedom seeking people.\u2028\u2028Hossein Kazemini Boroujerdi\u2028\u00a0Iran -Tehran- Evin\u2028\u00a0January 2015<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
