To some that sounds like a radical headline. Yet, who would have thought that the President would demand the Catholic Church pay for health care for Nuns that includes contraceptives? Who would believe he would demand that Catholic Universities provides abortions for students? The sad part is that this article could give President Obama an idea. If re-elected, he will go after organized religion using the power of government.
Think not? Look at what he has already done.
This is from Sweden: “Christer and Annie Johansson’s son, Domenic, was forcibly taken from them — without a warrant — in June 2009 as they sat on a plane, preparing to move to Annie’s home country of India. Swedish social services contended the Christian couple were unfit parents for homeschooling him — yet they were never charged with a crime. The Home School Legal Defense Association and Alliance Defense Fund came to their defense.
Social services authorities placed the youngster in foster care and a government school, allowing his parents to visit their son for one hour every five weeks. But now, says Roger Kiska of Alliance Defense Fund, the courts have finally sided with the family, stating the unanimous and extensive testimony of friends and family favoring Christer and Annie could not be ignored.” Germany and Bulgaria are doing the same. It can happen here.

A reunion is in the works three years after a seven-year-old boy was taken from his Swedish parents because they are evangelical Christians homeschooling their child.
Christer and Annie Johansson’s son, Domenic, was forcibly taken from them — without a warrant — in June 2009 as they sat on a plane, preparing to move to Annie’s home country of India. Swedish social services contended the Christian couple were unfit parents for homeschooling him — yet they were never charged with a crime. The Home School Legal Defense Association and Alliance Defense Fund came to their defense.
Social services authorities placed the youngster in foster care and a government school, allowing his parents to visit their son for one hour every five weeks. But now, says Roger Kiska of Alliance Defense Fund, the courts have finally sided with the family, stating the unanimous and extensive testimony of friends and family favoring Christer and Annie could not be ignored.
“Social services has been evil, to put it in one word,” the attorney tells OneNewsNow. “The state moved to finally terminate the parental rights of the Johanssons, which would have ended the case and they would not have had an option to take their child back — [but] thankfully, there was a great opinion from the judge which sided with the Johnassons.”
Kiska says even though this was an outlandish case, parents in the United States should take note — because such actions, he explains, are not limited to Sweden.
“… It’s happening in Germany, it’s now happening in Bulgaria — and when these things happen in Europe, they tend to make their down to the United States rather quickly,” warns Kiska. “There’s been a slew of bad precedent that the United States Supreme Court and state supreme courts have taken from Europe. So I think everyone needs to be aware.”
It is hoped Dominic — who is now 10 years old — will soon be with his parents, although there is a reunification process that must take place.
