END TIME!! Taking Children To Church Violates Their Human Rights - United Nations

What is the world turning into?  They better not try to introduce this their funny way of life to the people in the African region,  as a matter of fact I stand with the position that,  children should be taking care of until they reach the age of accountability
Well In the news, Reports have it that a recent United Nations document
condemned teaching kids about God saying it's a violation of their human rights.
The UN Committee report on the rights of children indicated that such things like taking your child to church and schools where they're forced to partake in Christian meetings is violating their human rights.
The document likened teaching kids Christianity to child labor. As learnt, it was complied by a group of 'independent experts of high moral character'. Group members representing various countries demanded of the world to rise against laws enforcing daily acts of Christian worship at schools.
To them, such and similar religious enforcement, are capable of hampering on a child's freedom of thought, conscience and religion.
Although the report was specifically meant to highlight possible ways Britain is violating the UN's charter on the Rights of the Child, it made inferences to the world at large.
An excerpt from the document said: "the Committee is concerned that pupils are required by law to take part in a daily religious worship. Which is, wholly or mainly of a broadly Christian character in publicly funded schools in England and Wales.
And, that children do not have the right to withdraw from such worship without parental permission before entering the sixth form."
With the above, the Committee recommended that "the State party repeal legal provisions for compulsory attendance at collective worship in publicly funded schools and ensure that children can independently exercise the right to withdraw from religious worship at school."
Already, parents can withdraw their children from collective worship in Britain.
The Committee however, wants to hand the kids the right to take decision in this regard themselves. Many have lashed the report asking the compilers to honorably trash it. For instance, Parliament Minister David Burrowes said: "the collective act of worship is not an indoctrination exercise.
It is recognizing and respecting the Christian heritage of the country and giving people an opportunity to reflect before the beginning of the day."
Among other things, the document demanded of the British government to crush domestic abuse and protect kids from being spanked by their parents.
