Fighters against child abuse asks you to join together in prayer on Saturday October 2nd, 2010 at mid-day to pray for all child abusers, paedophile rings be exposed and end this abuse on our children..........Saturday, 02 October 2010 at 12:00 noon

Anything you need of me ask , im backing this 100% x

do you welcome other religions / atheists or is there some religious agenda here too?

you hit it on the head Raymond Bennett, i didnt want to comment as its a sensitive subject but what has God got to do with it?

Hasn't he got his work cut out, stopping plagues,disease, pestilence, war , earthquakes and...oh .He doesnt stop any of those things either. My mistake.

I went on the holysouldier website also.
its "God first" by all observations, but very clever, using such an evocative topic as child abuse as the hook and cover. I mean who in their right mind condones child abuse, who wouldnt want to stop it? Everyone seems to have jumped on the "I'll do whatever I can " train to nowhere. I wonder how many people even looked at the website.

Asking people in Ireland to pray for an end to child abuse is like holding an AA meeting in an off-licence. Consider what the Cathoilc church did there unchecked for decades.
I was taught in Ireland by priests, I can tell you a few stories. who is going to trust institutionalised worship and its rituals?


If God is so powerful and omnipotent, why does he require some kickboxers to end child abuse?
Next thing you know, pop singers will be called upon to end famine.

Sorry, if anyone touched my son, I wont be praying for help , i will be using a chainsaw and I wont be asking for forgiveness.

I'm not going to criticise anyone's belief system. I know people who do a lot of good on the back of their religious beliefs without feeling the need to proselytise. Just wondering what the religious agenda is.

I'm not going to criticise anyone's belief system ... or lack of belief system for that matter.

Ditto , Hawkman

For a start, if God existed then he wouldn't let the sick fuckers that do theses kind of thing to kids get away with it.

Secondly I am sure the sick fuckers that do all this are not going to be deterred by a few people wearing t-shirts, and displaying banners.

Also, is it not best to prevent, than come to the aid after the act has already been done? It's time to stop letting the sickos' away with it, and giving them cushy jail terms, it's time to bring back shit like the death penalty for these kinds of people.

Jonno, your support is much welcomed as if everbodys.

And many thanks to Hawkman & Raymond on your comments.

This is Faith based, not religous. and for me that faith is christianty.. I agree with your comments re the catholic church Hawkman, who is going to trust them. but being a christian is not about being religous, a mistake often made... Being a catholic, protestant etc, these are religions.

In my faith , God does come first, and my faith lets me believe in the power of prayer, not some in some religous organised & institutionalised worship and its rituals.... But I am not here to convince you about that. it would take me to long to explain it.

we all have faith, faith such as I am going to win my next fight, even though we dont see it, we believe it and train for it !!!!

"faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen, it gives us assurances about things we cannot see"..

On quote I use with some fighters..... God is my rock, He has prepared my hands for war and my fingers for battle....... even Ali said, "if God is with me, who can be against me"....

Anyway, Fighters against Child abuse is standing for all abused children, world wide from any religous, non religous creed or background, we are all created equal... We want to end the abuse, not only through prayer, by standing side by side with the abused, letting them no, there is a place where they will be heard..

In Ireland, its all to common for something like this to swept under the carpet and sure it will go away. But this is a world wide issue, in all communities.. and We will stand together..

Muay thai King..

thank you for your post.. One of the gifts we have is free will... to choose to do whatever we want in this life... it is sickening that some people use this to abuse children, and yes it will take a lot more than a few people wearing tshirts and waving a few banners , to deter these abusers, but it is only the start, much more will come and will happen, as they say watch this space........

one of the reasons abusers get away with it for so long as they do , is abused children are seldom heard.... ore believed... Fighters Against Child Abuse.. a global alliance is place where they can come.. feel safe and protected..it is early days yet, the global alliance will grow....

the question is how will you help put an end to child abuse???

FIGHTERS AGAINST CHILD ABUSE IRELAND:
1400 babies are shaken to death in the USA every year...... Heres a thought, Why dont you pick on someone your one size, Come shake me.......... Stop the abuse...

I keep my own son safe, and anyone close to me. And if anyone thinks of touching them in whatever way then it wont be a chainsaw as said above, that be too good for them.

I am sure there are many Government organisations that are around that help in caring for people who have been victims of abuse whether it be physical, mental or sexual.

What you do is entirely up to you, and all the best with it. It's more the comment at the top of the thread regarding how many views your topic had, but no comments. Basically insinuating that the people who have viewed, and well not wished you well on your crusade are not for the end of abuse towards children.

In ireland figures have been realeased that over 150+ children died while in government care.

I dont really care whose crusade regarding child abuse, people join, there are kids out there who have no-one to turn to, to protect them, our kids and those close to us are the lucky ones, who have loving parents to care and protect them.... as you see from my last post 1400 in america were shaken to death..... they werent as fortunate as our kids.....just want to make people aware that this issue needs to be addressed, it wont go away by itself.

the more this issue is brought to peoples awareness, the less places abusers will have to hide....

not just my crusade, but a global one, thank you for your comments & time in posting....

it all seems a bit wanna be vigilante, what has this got to do with fighters?

"1400 babies are shaken to death in the USA every year...... Heres a thought, Why dont you pick on someone your one size, Come shake me.......... Stop the abuse..."

i doubt that 1400 babies are murdered a year in the usa, where is the source, why give it the big un "Come shake me" when there isnt anyone arguing with you?

I had a look at the website and facebook pages, and I find both pretty disturbing, I would think that it would be more appropriate and beneficial to come together and raise funds and awareness of the issue by supporting some of the established excellent agencies and charities.

it all comes across as very Rex Kwon Do.

"child abusers they wouldn't like a roundhouse kick to the headad in these bad boys"

should read

"child abusers they wouldn't like a roundhouse kick to the head in these bad boys"

Ross, i would be really interested where you get your figures from, 150 kids died while in government care, is that last week, year, century, you are without doubt sincere in what you are trying to achieve but the methods used are queationable

Back again

since 200 188 kids/young adults have died either in govt care or were known to the health service.

Among the new figures the Health Service has said that 84 children and young adults died from natural deaths including 21 suicides, 10 unlawfully killed, 14 died after taking drugs, 15 died in traffic accidents, 24 died in "other accidents".

Stevie

1400 babies a year, source, Oprah Winfrey's recent show on child abuse....

Stevie, many thanks for clarifying those figures. they are the ones we know about sinc and released regularly since 2000. as we are all aware more and more info is being gathered every day..... all we have to do is look as what has happened in the church, and the cover ups....

......the more this issue is brought to peoples awareness, the less places abusers will have to hide....

Children are suffering from a hidden epidemic of child abuse and neglect. Over 3 million reports of child abuse are made every year in the United States; however, those reports can include multiple children. In 2007, approximately 5.8 million children were involved in an estimated 3.2 million child abuse reports and allegations.
• A report of child abuse is made every ten seconds.
• Almost five children die everyday as a result of child abuse. More than three out of four are under the age of 4.
• It is estimated that between 60-85% of child fatalities due to maltreatment are not recorded as such on death certificates.
• 90% of child sexual abuse victims know the perpetrator in some way; 68% are abused by family members.
• Child abuse occurs at every socioeconomic level, across ethnic and cultural lines, within all religions and at all levels of education.
• 31% percent of women in prison in the United States were abused as children.
• Over 60% of people in drug rehabilitation centers report being abused or neglected as a child.
• About 30% of abused and neglected children will later abuse their own children, continuing the horrible cycle of abuse.
• About 80% of 21 year old that were abused as children met criteria for at least one psychological disorder.
• The estimated annual cost of child abuse and neglect in the United States for 2007 is $104 billion.
• Abused children are 25% more likely to experience teen pregnancy.

Child abuse is a very emotive subject. I'm afraid that while your intentions may be worthy, your cause is being confused by your call to 'prayer' and talk about 'Holy Soldiers' and vague promises of punishment, and also the various vague references on your website about family courts, what's that about? To be very honest you do sound like a bunch of militant, evangelical vigilantes who are jumping on the child abuse bandwagon. Forgive me if that is not the case but if that's not it then you need to look at your communication again.

You also mention raising money (t-shirt / clothing sale?).
How exactly would you spend that money in your cause? Are you a registered charity?

Why not fundraise for a legitimate children's charity like Childline, Barnardos or Save the Children who already have effective, well researched, infrastructures in place that can really help those children who need it?

Raymond,

my page can be found on facebook as fighters against child abuse ireland....

jumping on the band wagon !! definitely not....this organisation is in its infancy stages, and will grow and grow and make some/many changes along the way I agree some of the comments appear to be sort of vigilante and over the top, an issue being addressed.. it is a very emotive subject and we all have different views, some stronger than others,

I welcome all constructive criticism, and listen to it and use it to help move this chapter of FACA forward, and am in communication with other chapters of FACA to recitfy this. for my part and comment "come shake me", all i was trying to put across that in that moment of abuse i would much prefer an abuser to come and hurt me and leave the child alone.... I could put loads of info on here on about who we are and what we do and will do (re courts etc)

The organisations you mention are great, and we will help and support and work along side these organisations whenever and where ever possible...."It is our Mission to help Abuse programs all over the globe".... We are a Christian Ministry, who are not be out to be vigilantes. we can all read into this differently but no doubt we will be judged by what we do and our results....thank you for your honesty, and we have been and are looking into our communication, and in every group in all walks of life, it takes time to get things the way you want them....as you are aware a lengthy process.


As a Christian, i do believe in the power of prayer,

You just said in another thread that the Bible is your favourite book?


Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember that which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid wait for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt. Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass." (I Samuel 15:2-3)


Behold, these caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to commit trespass against the LORD in the matter of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD. Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves." (Numbers 31:16-18)


isnt this in dark contrast to the ideals of protecting children?

what kind of God is this , who advocates slaying children?

well put hawkman, got me there all from the old testament... but as a Christian, i follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.... some quotes below... we can sit here all day quoting scripture.. here are some of mine....

agree with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with him;

5:38 You have heard that it has been said, An eye for an eye, and atooth for a tooth:

5:39 But I say unto you, That you resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.

5:46 For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? do not even the publicans the same?

5:47 And if you salute your brothers only, what do you more than
others?

And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.
(Matthew 18:2-6 ESV)

“See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
(Matthew 18:10 ESV)



from the same bible......

Hi all,

Exactly which charity is this for and to what end do all the donations go towards? unicef?? save the children?? NSPCC?? childline?? the list is endless......it just seems to have taken a very religious slant, that's all!!

Please could somebody clarify what this is all about, as all this scripture quoting is making me a bit wary of this thread's intentions.

If it is about making a difference in regards to child abuse, then, which organisation does it represent or fight for?

Kind regards

F.A.C.A: Who we are, and we will become.

Fighters Against Child Abuse is a Christian Based Ministry.

Our number one goal as an agency is to provide Public Awareness through our sport to help and support Abused Children.

"It is our Mission to help Abuse programs all over the globe",

It will be done through Marketing and Partnerships. Additionally Fighters Against Child Abuse will offer Courtroom Support and Child Mentorship, to all Abused Children and Families that request our assistance. We will also provide support to Adults abused as children.

a brief outline Mark... anyone who would like further information feel free to email me at ross@thepunchingpastor.com

are you a registered charity?

Registration,the mandates, laws, bylaws etc are all being drawn up by solicitors, for such a topic, we are taking the best legal advice so as to create a global group..... will keep you updated when completed....

you could all wear red berets and go round fighting crime too!

i know your heart is in the right place, it seems to me its a way to get close to people and try and get them on the "jesus flex" and spread the word!

Thanks you for all the comments.....

that last logo, dyu think if you bounced up to social services wearing that they would welcome you or call the cops.

FKn Nutters

where did you get the picture for that last one? what is it? is it a kid covered in cuts?

I have to say, that while I commend the intentions, that I find the methods quite distasteful and the pictures somewhat offensive.

I still can't understand whether this is a registered charity or not, and am completely confused now i've seen those posters/slogans.

Wouldn't a charity just have the one poster/logo? So my question is this............Are we dealing with a personal crusade or a genuine organisation? Whichever it is, you may need a rethink on your marketing strategy. Shock tactics might work with "drunk drivers", but it will definately never work with this subject IMO.

Good luck with it, is the most positive I can be.

Best wishes

Mark (U.K)

Paul it looks as if it's meant to be a child, that looks to be cracked like a bit china/porcelain - maybe to get across kids are fragile???

Straight from the hip, eh Stevie?? LOL

Shame, Guilt, Pain, Suffering, Beaten, Broken, Silenced.
Do any of these words truly belong in a young Childs vocabulary?. Do they belong
in a young child’s life? Use your vocabulary, and add the words: Stop The Violence!
Report Child Abuse, you may save a life

A day in the life of a child should be filled with, curiosity, laughter, adventure, learning and above all love and security. As parents we should never want anything else for them. You see most of us look at our Children as Angels …Some Make It A Reality!
Stop The Abuse of Our Children!

it is not the critics who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. the credit belongs to the man in the arena, who at best knows in the end the triumph of great achievement and who at worst if he fails at least fails daring greatly. So that this place will never be with those timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.... T Roosevelt

I'm with you on this on Uncle K :-)

Guys, Many thanks for your comments and opinions. I am encourged to help keep Fighters Against Child Abuse moving forward, as the old saying goes "Rome was not built in a day". You are dealing with a genuine organisation, with more countries adding chapters.

For those of you who are confused, let me post a couple of main points again:

1.Fighters Against Child Abuse is a Christian Based Ministry.

2.Our number one goal as a ministry is to provide Public Awareness through our sport to help and support Abused Children.

3."IT IS OUR MISSION TO HELP CHILD ABUSE PROGRAMS ALL OVER THE WORLD........

our intentions are honourable, and i have no doubt we will be judged by our results.... wait & see....

And strange as it may seem to you, Stevie, although you may not believe it, not only social services, but schools, youth organisations, local police, community groups, that I have met with here are more than welcoming us, logos and all :)

It is Courage, Faith, Endurance and a Dogged Determination to surmount all obstacles which are the foundations of Success.... perhaps some of these qualities you teach in your gym too.

It is Courage, Faith, Endurance and a Dogged Determination to surmount all obstacles which are the foundations of Success.......

Come on .... Join the Fight....Our number one goal is to provide Public Awareness through our sport to help and support Abused Children

2.Our number one goal as a ministry is to provide Public Awareness through our sport to help and support Abused Children.

3."IT IS OUR MISSION TO HELP CHILD ABUSE PROGRAMS ALL OVER THE WORLD........"

As things stand I believe being a Christian Ministry IS your number one objective, I believe becoming a registered, reputable child abuse charity is secondary.

Ross Barrett says:
"our intentions are honourable, and i have no doubt we will be judged by our results.... wait & see.... "

So, apart from producing a multitude of ambiguous logos, posters and soundbites, can you tell us what your track record as an organisation is? How much money have you raised and how you have spent the money you have raised? If you can't answer these questions then why are you on such a recruiting binge with such a vague message? Surely you should organise your 'charity' first.

I don't buy this "raising awareness" objective. It's a very patronising message to say the least. Who do you know who is unaware of child abuse in our society? Have you just discovered this fact yourself?

I guess that the main goal of your organisation is proselytism. The cynic in me says that vulnerable abuse victims and their families are a soft target audience, as are trusting, good hearted young fighters.

Raymond,

1. FACA is part of a Christian Ministry.
2. An Application has been made to register Fighters Against Child Abuse as a Charity... if you are able to fasttrack this for me, please do.....
3. Fighters Against Child Abuse ireland is only 6 weeks old (and we both know rome was not built in a day)
4. To date it has raised just under €2,500 (all profits from my small gym go to this)
5. FACA is non profit.. the money so far has been given to Local
orphanage organisations both here in Ireland & the Phillipines that help Young abused children..
6. the First main FACA IReland event is November 2Oth, 2010
7. Profits from this event and any other will be given to Local And National Organisations, Charities that help abuse children of all ages ie barnados, Ispcc and further afield etc. our aim is to support them though our works
8. I give of my time (twice a week) to train and mentor young people from broken homes or that have been abused, often travelling up to 100miles to do so...and I do not charge....(the Christian in Me) I can provide refrences from these organistions...
9. Chritianity is not a religous sect. it is a way of life.
10. FACA has already opened Chapters in the UK, USA..
11. I also work to provide for my own Family...
12. Ihave not asked for donations, or money... as for recruiting (needed a few on the board before application could be made), there will be those who will join and help or lend their support and as with every other organistion in this world, their will be those who will always question
13. I forgive you cynicism.. again the Christian in me :)
14. It is Courage, Faith, Endurance and a Dogged Determination to surmount all obstacles which are the foundations of Success.......Fighters Against Child Abuse will grow...it is early days...

The message is simple(and you may say so am I)

Our number one goal as a ministry is to provide Public Awareness through our sport to help and support Abused Children.

Any organisation (religious or not) that makes a stand against child abuse can only be good in my eyes.
I also think that hard-hitting, shock tactic awareness is definitely a must with regard to this subject. In this day and age, it's the only way of getting the message over.

What are your organisations views on...

1. the 5 and 6 year olds fighting full thai rules in Thailand?

2. Juniors in the UK being allowed to do head contact

Dave,

I am currently doing some research on the junior muay thai and will comment on it in the future.

As for Juniors in the UK being allowed to do head contact:

not an issue with it as long as full protection is worn, medical crew and doctor present, as well as child protection officers supervising the event and fully trained officials and referees.

the JFCC is doing this and I have attended both their events this year with some of my juniors fighting on it. the events were the safest i have attended yet and with my own daughter competing on both events I felt that the whole event was controlled professionally and safely.

i seen many mismatches, bloody noses, knockouts, broken ribs at light contact shows both here and in the uk......

Check out http://www.juniorfullcontactcouncil.co.uk/protection.html

under the rules set out here, i dont have an issue with it.
