In Eastern Europe, under Communism, children were encouraged to spy on their parents and report them to the authorities…. Whether this story is true or not, the point of it having been published at all is to encourage children to "do the right thing".

Texas teen tipped FBI off about dad’s involvement in Capitol riot

An 18-year-old Texas man tipped off the FBI about his father’s role in the US Capitol riot — and said he’d do it again.

Jackson Reffitt — whose dad, Guy Reffitt, was charged last week in the Jan. 6 siege — told local outlet Fox4 that he acted out of moral obligation.

“It was my moral compass … to do what I thought would protect not only my family, but my dad himself,” he said.

“I would do it again.”

The elder Reffitt, of Wylie, had allegedly threatened his son and daughter, saying, “If you turn me in, you’re a traitor and you know what happens to traitors … traitors get shot,” court papers state.

His son told the TV station, “I took that as a threat, but I never thought he would act upon it.”

Reffitt said his dad is part of a far-right militia group and that he has embraced increasingly radicalized views over the years.

He was concerned about what would happen when law enforcement came to arrest his father, saying, “The police could’ve come in at any time, at a bad time, regardless of the situation and my dad could’ve opened fire.”

Calling the FBI “wasn’t just because I think my dad is aggressive,” Reffitt said. “I think what he’s been manipulated into thinking is aggressive.”

He also recalled the moment he learned his father was at the siege.

“I think it was Fox playing, and it was just live screening of riots at the Capitol, and the rushing in, and my mom said, ‘Your dad is there,'” Reffitt said.

Guy Reffitt, 48, was tracked down by federal authorities after footage of him at the Capitol during the riot was played on YouTube and on Fox News on the day of the siege, according to court papers.

Photos included in an arrest affidavit show him wearing a padded or tactical-style vest and black helmet with what looks like a GoPro-style camera attached while at the Capitol.

Investigators found out he had previously posted a comment on a website for a militia extremist group known as the Texas Freedom Force, according to the FBI.

When authorities arrested him on Jan. 15, they found an AR-15-style rifle and a Smith & Wesson pistol, court papers state.

While he hasn’t been able to speak with his dad since the arrest, Jackson said he wishes that he could.

“I would say I’m sorry, because I don’t feel like I put him in this situation, but I still feel guilty,” he said.

Controversy as Noosa Satanists celebrate what they say is 'an important win for religious freedom'

Experts say Satanism is being used as a method to challenge mainstream religious beliefs by those who may have been disenchanted or alienated by organised religion.

Satanists are celebrating what they are calling, "a small but important win for religious freedom" after succeeding in having the pentagram added among the symbols of recognised faiths displayed at the Sunshine Coast University Hospital’s multi-faith centre.

The Noosa Temple of Satan said it is working with the hospital to have its spiritual leader officially recognised as a minister. “We think it's important that Satanists can access the right spiritual support during their time of need,” the Temple’s leader, Samael Dema Gorgon, said on Facebook.

Noosa Temple of Satan co-founder Trevor Bell, 56, said it wasn't a particularly difficult step to take. “I think there was already something like seven or eight different faiths that were listed there in the chapel and I don't think it was that hard to get on the list," he said. "I think they were quite inclusive and quite ready to add Satanism to the list and it was done relatively quickly without a great problem."

A Queensland Health spokesperson told SBS News that its service cares for patients of all religious backgrounds and displays world-recognised religious symbols in its facilities. “Queensland Health staff care for patients of all faiths in their facilities and these patients are entitled to request and receive support from their faith leader,” Queensland Health said in a statement. “Facilities may display world-recognised religious symbols as a welcoming gesture for patients and visitors. In 2020, Queensland Health released its Framework for the Integration of Spiritual Care in Queensland Health Facilities." The hospital did not respond to SBS News’ query about how the hospital would handle reactions of people from different faiths.

In an attempt to put an end to religious studies in Queensland state schools, the Noosa Temple of Satan is requesting the teaching of Satanism in schools, with the same rights as Christian organisations. The Satanic temple is asking its 5,000 members on Facebook to register their children in school as Satanists.

Mike Hercock is a former Senior Minister of Imagine Baptist Church in Sydney. He says that Satanism is being used as a method to challenge and disrupt mainstream religious beliefs by those who may have been disenchanted or alienated by organised religion throughout their lives. “The question I think it raises is about the sense of experience that people who are voiceless or concerned by the power of religion in schools,” Mr Hercock said. “That sense of voicelessness I suppose as I have mentioned often comes out of hurt and anger over the control and abuse of the church over years, I have some empathy towards that." Mr Hercock was one of the 100 Revs, a group that comprised of 100 clergy who officially apologised to the LGBTQI+ community of Australia for the attitudes of the Church towards them in 2008.

Muslim Imam Ibrahim Dadoun said he was concerned about Satanism being used as a diversion to prevent people from worshipping God.

John Dickson is a senior lecturer at Ridley College, an Australian Christian theological college. He said the move by the Noose Temple of Satan was "a joke". "It's a joke on the hospital that has accepted this as a faith," he said.
