Churches in Brazil joined the government's disarmament campaign on Saturday, hoping to call attention to an upcoming national referendum that could completely ban the commercial sale of firearms.

Catholic, Orthodox, Presbyterian and Lutheran churches across Brazil opened their doors to allow people to voluntarily turn in their guns, the official Agencia Brasil news service reported. The churches will be taking the firearms until the end of the nationwide disarmament campaign on June 23.

These are the same churches that are actively working with the UN on world disarmament. The U.S. is in their sights too. The Lutheran and Presbyterian are the worst.

The Michigan Catholic Conference led the charge against concealed carry here.

The UN gun grab.

In July 2005, governments, UN agencies and NGOs will gather for the Second Biennial Meeting of States to Consider the Implementation of the Programme of Action (BMS).

United Methodist,Catholic,Lutheran, Prebyterian,Reform Jewish,UCC, UU,Episcopalian,Quaker, Christian Scientology, Congregational all these in the US are involved. Even though the Catholic Church recognizes self-defense they are still for gun control. At least the Bishops are ie the hiearchy.
