Keresztény Szabadság

A Wisconsin Egyházak Tanácsa (Wisconsin Council of Churches, WCC) egy ökumenikus szervezet, amely 21 keresztény felekezetet köt össze és hoz párbeszédbe egymással. A WCC saját küldetésnyilatkozata szerint elkötelezett a vallásszabadság védelme és a keresztény nacionalizmus növekedésének elutasítása mellett, hangsúlyozva a vallási pluralizmus fontosságát és az állam semlegességét a vallási ügyekben. ​Ezért is tették közzé nyílt levelüket, amellyel a trumpi adminisztráció eddigi, egyházakat, a kereszténységet érintő rendeletei ellen állnak ki.
(A nyílt levél saját fordításban olvasható.)

A vallásszabadságért és a keresztény nacionalizmus ellen

2025. március 11.

Mi, alulírottak, arra kérjük a szövetségi kormányt, hogy védje meg minden ember vallásszabadságát, és határozottan elítéljük a keresztény nacionalizmus térnyerését, a fundamentalista kereszténység, a konzervatív politika és a heves hazafiság veszélyes összefonódását, amely eltorzítja, mit jelent amerikai állampolgárnak és a társadalomban elkötelezett kereszténynek lenni.

A Trump elnök által február 6-án aláírt végrehajtási rendelet egy új „munkacsoportot hozott létre a keresztényellenes előítéletek felszámolására.” Ennek a munkacsoportnak az a feladata, hogy „azonosítson minden törvénytelen keresztényellenes politikát, gyakorlatot vagy magatartást az ügynökség részéről.” Ez a végrehajtási rendelet veszélyezteti az alkotmányban rögzített vallási pluralizmust, és nem a keresztényeket védi, hanem a szövetségi kormányt a keresztény nacionalizmushoz igazítja.

A „Keresztényellenes előítéletek felszámolásáról” szóló végrehajtási rendelettel a szövetségi kormány felhatalmazást és mandátumot adott magának annak meghatározására, hogy mi tekinthető „keresztényellenesnek,” és így arra is, hogy meghatározza, mit jelent az, hogy keresztény. Ennek meghatározására pedig egyedül az egyháznak van mandátuma, nem pedig a szövetségi kormánynak. Ez a végrehajtási rendelet sérti a vallásszabadságot, megrontja az egyház és az állam szétválasztását, és még ellenségesebb környezetet teremt a keresztények és minden olyan polgár számára, aki másként hisz, mint a jelenlegi kormányzat és annak vallási tanácsadói.

Keresztényként Jézus parancsát követjük, hogy szeressük Istent és szeressük egymást. A keresztény nacionalizmus, amely korántsem a keresztények többsége és így nem is nyilatkozhat akként, eltorzítja az evangéliumot, Jézust és a kereszténységet. A hatalom és a megosztás fegyverévé teszi a szeretet és az igazságosság felé irányuló misszió helyett. Amerikai állampolgárokként olyan kormányzati rendszert támogatunk, amely a közjót próbálja a középpontban tartani, védi a vallásszabadságot és mindenkinek a jogait. A keresztény nacionalizmus veszélyes ideológiája azt követeli, hogy a kereszténység egy bizonyos fajtáját részesítse előnyben az állam, és ezt az egyedülálló hitrendszert kényszerítse ki, hogy „jó amerikaivá” válhassunk.

A vallásszabadság védelme érdekében a szövetségi kormánynak nem szabad egy vallási ideológiához igazodnia, hanem tiszteletben kell tartania azt az alkotmányos megbízatást, hogy megvédje a vallási pluralizmus tereit, és biztosítsa, hogy a társadalom minden tagja szabadon gyakorolhassa vallását, vagy ne gyakorolhassa vallását, miközben fenntartja a békét és együtt dolgozik a közjóért.

Felszólítjuk az Egyesült Államok elnökét és minden választott tisztségviselőjét, hogy védjék meg a vallásszabadságot hazánkban, és tartsák tiszteletben az Amerikai Egyesült Államok alkotmányát.
