Statement on the Terror Attack in Christchurch

The Minaret of Freedom Institute stands in solidarity with Muslims around the world, and all people of good will, in condemnation of the horrific murder of 49 innocent people in Christchurch, New Zealand. May God be with the victims and their families, and guide us all through this time of grief and sorrow.

We deeply appreciate the kind words, gestures and continued support of people of all religions and those who follow no particular faith, but whose conscience as to right and wrong remains pure and uncorrupted. We renew our commitment to defeat hatred and bigotry with compassion and love.

We are well aware that such disgraceful incidents are enabled by those politicians, hate-group leaders, and trolls who seek to advance their own power and status by dividing us against one another, but we refuse to respond in kind and will continue to support and comfort one another with an unshakable faith in the Oneness of the Divinity that has created us all and challenged us to compete in the doing of good.
