Unification Church slams Japan's dissolution request as a threat to religious freedom_我的网站

A |     由伦敦自然历史博物馆举办的年度野生动物摄影师大赛涵盖了19个不同类别，包括城市野生动物、湿地、动物肖像和无脊椎动物行为等。今年的比赛吸引了来自93个国家的摄影师提交的近40,000件作品。    TOKYO -- The Japanese branch of the Unification Church on Monday criticized the Japanese government's request for a court order to dissolve the group, saying it's based on groundless accusations and is a serious threat to religious freedom and human rights of its followers. Japan’s Education Ministry on Friday asked the Tokyo District Court to revoke the legal status of the Unification Church after a ministry investigation concluded the group for decades has systematically manipulated its followers into donating money, sowing fear and harming their families.The investigation followed months of public outrage and questions about the group’s fundraising and recruitment tactics after former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s assassination last year. The man accused of shooting Abe allegedly was motivated by the former prime minister’s links to the church and blamed it for bankrupting his family.The government's request is “extremely disappointing and regrettable,” said the church's legal affairs department chief, Nobuo Okamura. “We believe the request for a dissolution order is a serious development not only for freedom of religion but also human rights."The request asks the court to issue a dissolution order revoking the church’s status as a religious organization. The process involves hearings and appeals from both sides and would take months or possibly years.A church lawyer, Nobuya Fukumoto, criticized the government for not specifying which law the group violated, and vowed to thoroughly fight it in court. If the church is stripped of its legal status, it could still operate but would lose its tax exemption privilege as a religious organization and would face financial setbacks. Some experts and lawyers supporting the victims have cautioned against an attempt by the church to hide its assets before a court decision. The church worries that the rare dissolution request hurts its image, said Susumu Sato, spokesperson for the group, which officially calls itself the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification. Church officials said followers and their families have been harassed at work and school. Decades of cozy ties between the church and Japan’s governing Liberal Democratic Party were revealed since Abe’s assassination and have eroded support for Prime Minister Fumio Kishida’s government. The Unification Church obtained legal status as a religious organization in Japan in the 1960s during an anti-communist movement that was supported by Abe’s grandfather, former Prime Minister Nobusuke Kishi.The church has acknowledged excessive donations but says the problem has been mitigated for more than a decade. It also has pledged further reforms.Experts say Japanese followers are asked to pay for sins committed by their ancestors during Japan’s 1910-1945 colonial rule of the Korean Peninsula, and that the majority of the church’s worldwide funding comes from Japan.The only other religious organizations whose status was revoked are the Aum Shinrikyo doomsday cult, which carried out a sarin nerve gas attack on the Tokyo subway in 1995, and the Myokakuji group, whose executives were convicted of fraud.。年度最佳摄影师奖由美国摄影师Karine Aigner获得，他拍摄的雄性仙人掌蜜蜂蜂拥在“交配球”中心的一只雌性仙人掌蜜蜂上，令人惊叹。

C | 几个月前，由加州科学院举办的BigPicture自然摄影大赛也授予了“交配球”图像年度照片。评审团主席Rosamund Kidman Cox说道：“振翅欲飞，来势汹汹的雄蜂对着直接滚入画面的嗡嗡作响的蜜蜂球发起冲击。在蜜蜂级别的放大镜下，运动感和强度被展现出来并将小仙人掌蜜蜂转化为争夺一只雌蜂的大竞争者。

E | 这幅不可思议的图片是由摄影师Dmitry Kokh拍摄，他在俄罗斯楚科奇海的一个孤岛上发现了这些北极熊。Kokh将一架低噪音的无人机送上岛以拍摄一系列惊人的图片，它们展示了一些生活在这个定居点的北极熊。自然历史博物馆馆长Doug Gurr说道：“野生动物摄影师为我们提供了进入野生物种生活的难忘一瞥，分享了看不见的细节、迷人的行为及关于气候和生物多样性危机的一线报道。这些图片展示了他们对自然界的敬畏和欣赏以及采取行动保护自然界的迫切需要。
