Please sign this online petition today and let others know that you too seek Pakistan to end such unjust laws and institutionalized hate in Pakistan today.
End Blasphemy Laws in Pakistan Petition
We call for an end to the unjust and discriminatory “blasphemy laws” in Pakistan that are used to rationalize religious discrimination, oppression, violence, and murder of others. Such “blasphemy laws” are used to justify violence against both non-Muslims and Muslims throughout Pakistan today.
We believe that such institutionalized oppression of our fellow human beings is against our universal human rights and must be rejected by all people who support any religion of peace.
We call on the government of Pakistan to abandon these “blasphemy laws” today, review the deep divisions within its nation that has allowed such hate against its own citizens, and defend the universal human rights of all of its citizens.
We also call on the government of the United States of America, which has given millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to Pakistan, to demand that the Pakistan government end these “blasphemy laws” and support the universal human rights of its citizens. Finally, we call on our fellow human beings on our shared Earth to call upon all organizations and nations of the world that seek to use such unjust forms of religious discrimination to end such practices and recognize our universal human rights.
