Well, i had a read of the doc and found this passage...

TITLE 2: FREEDOMS

Article 11-10: Freedom of thought, conscience and religion

1. Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion. This right includes freedom to change religion of belief and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or in private, to manifest religion of belief, in worship, teaching , practice and observance.

Have fun

Might as well ask the question are those of us in europe going to adopt the new wording as it is? We have added the constitution of europe to the wording as well so please take the time to re-read it.
If yes then we can move on to rewording the rest of the relevent paperwork, If no can we have suggestions please the longer we take the longer we remain unprotected.
Due to considerations of space to fit the wording i personally think we should NOT mention any religions whatsoever as our rights do not state that YOU must be connected to a conventional religion/belief structure.
I do not have to justify my beliefs to any authority as i believe i already have been given my authority by my beliefs. Right then over to you!!

On another point are the certificates etc printed on Hemp paper?

Heres a reworked version for consideration with the kind help of Brother Hvyfuel. I like this one best.

I am _ _ _ _ _ _ a unique person and inhabitant of the Country of _ _ _ _ _ _ I am endowed with personal autonomy and divinely-inherited rights and powers revealed by the United Nations Directive on Human Rights and the European charter of Human Rights My life, liberty and happiness includes the many beneficial uses of the natural herb, cannabis, misrepresented for decades as marijuana'. The personal and private use of cannabis is ESSENTIAL for my religion and an INTEGRAL food for my mind, body and spirit. I can only reach the appropriate religious state of my choice with cannabis. The cannabis plant is a health food and hempseed is a preventive health remedy.
The cultivation, possession and reverent use of cannabis is NECESSARY to insure my individuality, human dignity and my precious connection to God/belief and nature. Cannabis use is deeply-rooted in the history of civilization and was key to the development of Humanity for food, clothing, shelter, medicine, sacrament and more.
My RIGHT to the cultivation and use of cannabis sacrament is authorized by:
The United Nations Declaration of Human Rights.
Article 18, "Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief, in worship, teaching, practice and observance."
The European Convention on Human Rights.
Article 9 "Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief, in worship, teaching, practice and observance."
"Freedom to manifest ones religion or beliefs shall be subject only to such limitations as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of public safety, for the protection of public order, health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others."
I am free by nature! I claim the cherished right to be left alone, especially in the privacy of my mind and body, in my possessions and in my own Sanctuary, a place of refuge', one of the highest values of civilization.
The European Convention on Human Rights - Article 8.
"1 Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence.
2 There shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this right except such as is in accordance with the law and is necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security, public safety or the economic well-being of the country, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others."
The European Convention on Human Rights- Article 1.
"All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood."
“All these rights are further endorsed by the European constitution and contained therein”
Evidence exists to show that cannabis has been used safely for human comfort and enjoyment for over twelve thousand years. It provides the raw material for over 25,000 beneficial products for daily living including medicine, food, clothing, shelter, fuel, and much more. Cannabis has more practical uses than any other plant on Earth and it creates a sustainable, Earth-friendly supply of natural resources the time-honoured, old-fashioned way.. from the garden. In my experience and opinion, cannabis serves well the spiritual and material needs of my family.
Cannabis sacrament is MANDATED by our religion for baptism, communion, healing and spiritual unity. It is a healer and a revealer'. I have faith in cannabis and in life. In the right set and setting, and in the appropriate amount the custom of using cannabis sacrament prayerfully helps to integrate my mind, body and spirit, and helps me to climb the ladder of higher consciousness to feelings of well being, ecstasy, joy and peace from within. It can enhance intuition, artistic ability and creativity. It helps me to question established values and authority and gives me a sense of inner knowledge and a feeling of harmony with life and spirit. It's use aids in the development of my consciousness and my feelings for others.
We use Cannabis to relax our consciousness and allow our sub conscious to reach a state of meditation thus allowing us to improve as human beings and enhance our understanding of the essence of the living universe.
I enjoy the free exercise of my religious beliefs and practices because in my experience THC + TLC = HARMONY. For these reasons and many more...I am a religious practitioner of cannabis sacrament.
It was once legal to own slaves it was never right.

excellent work brothers and sisters.
this is just the kind of positive action we all need in England.
we need to get our defences organised before we start to expand in the uk. otherwise it wont be fair on our members.
the uk has a huge potential for growth and expansion.i started a thread here-

http://www.thc-ministry.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4473&sid=9c868fdc738a6181ef2f5bab5b6a4090

which is just for us the uk.feel free to dump any useful links on there.i have already began trawling for relevant legislation. Roger says he is going to help us put together a european kit so its all good news.our case is slightly different than the us and roger is a very busy man so i think its up to us to get our act together and find out where we stand before we consult brother roger for his guidance!

keep up the excellent work and dont lose heart

together we are one

peace

Hello Don and UK and EU friends,

Aloha. Thanks for the nudge for action in advance of any troubles. 'An ounce of prevention = a pound of cure', yes.

What's important in building a solid religious defense to prosecution are sacred documents and texts from the past + hemp history. Tie them together and we have a compelling answer to any cannabis charges of sincere and legitimate Practitioners or Ministers.

The THC Ministry defense was designed to work where there are two important systems in place. 1.) Freedom of religion guaranteed in writing in a Constitution, and 2.) a jury system. Does the EU Constitution guarantee these things? If so, it's the basis for our success.

Add to the above ingredients the superior hemp history of your area and we have a very solid platform indeed. Englands hemp history is FULL of examples that can be used for our advantage. I believe the same goes for France, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, etc.

Search for the type of paper the sacred documents of the past were written on. Search for the type of fabric the original flags were made of. Document it securely and conclusively as we've done here in the USA.

For instance: many times I have entered courts here in Hawai'i with my replica of "Old Glory", the original 13-star flag of the USA. I have a beautiful, full-sized copy made of handwoven hemp fiber, very similar to the original. It's an eye-catcher! I have it folded nicely and put it on the defense table in plain view of the Judge and Prosecutor. Just one touch of its strong hemp fibers is very convincing evidence of hemp history. It's tough! So unlike the nylon flags of today.

I usually wear a custom-made hemp suit to court. I mention this to everyone "on the record". It's a powerful statement in itself. I also have a hempleaf lapel pin that's an eye-catcher.

I also like to enter court with a Bible printed on hemp paper. When I get to testify I mention these facts to the Judge, Prosecutor and jury. It's powerful, trust me on that. It goes past laws and prejudices, etc. It's legal theater!

Jack Herer says that the Priests of olden times in Europe were totally involved in cannabis hemp. They grew it for food, clothing, paper, medicine sacrament and more. They are still known as "men of the cloth" today. Why? Cannabis!

The more we know history - the more we know hemp - and the better we can demonstrate OUR modern-day, spiritual intuition and desire to use cannabis religiously.

til later,

Roger

hello Roger
i know you are a busy man and i sincerely thank you for taking the time out to send a reply.
i have a mountain of documents covering the history-anthology-biology-chemistry-worship-uses-pharmacology etc etc of our sacred sacrament.

your uplifting and inspirational post has spurred me on brother and with help of others on here i know we can formulate a cohesive strategy which will enable the Ministry to expand over here.

first step is to build up my religeous credibility.while i am doing this i will try and put all the relevant material on a database and post the link on here.its important not to set a legal precedent that works against us.

loved your coment about judicial theatre.brilliant-like annointing everyone in a courtroom say.

i dont want to damage the good work you have done alread or bring the ministry into direpute so i give you my word i wiil take no action without telling you first.

we will present our strategy to you when we have formulated a plan.

phew long post-maybe i should learn to spell and become a writer!!!

all the best to you and all of yours brother Roger (especialy your mum , God bless her)

hey im new to this community and was wondering what the current situation is here in england. I have become a member of the forum does that grant me any extra protection?

is there kits that are available here yet and if so i would be looking for a 3 person kit. However from reading around i have discovered you have to be 21 to get this proetction(i think) so for us 3 all being 18/19 it wouldnt help. So that led me to question was it 21 as over in the US 21 is adult age or something because here in the UK im pretty sure 18 you are officially an adult in every respect being able to vote/drink alcohol/smoke/drive/be imprisoned!(for cannabis too) therefore shouldnt we be able to become full members at 18 else were stuck in a hole for 3 years as prosectable adults. Smile

Sorry if u dont have to be 21 am smoking as reading and thats the impression i gatherered.

Thanks and hi Lucas
