Uphold the Religious Liberties of Native American Religious Practitioners From Infringement By Recognized Indian Tribes

Created by W.A. on October 17, 2013

South Carolina State Senate Bill 611 seeks to deny any further State recognition of Native American Organizations. How does this affect the Spiritual Liberties of non-recognized organizations? Some State and Federally Recognized Tribes seek through intimidation to stop Native Religious Practitioners, regardless of ancestry, from performing their ceremonies by dictating by where and by whom these ceremonies may be performed. We hold that Native Religious Practice and Spirituality cannot be governed by any "recognized" federal, or state tribe. The Constitution of The United States protects individual religious freedoms.Government entities have no governing authority over personal religious beliefs.To review the full text of our grievance, see http://nativeamericanchurch.us/petition.html
