International Religious Liberty Association
The International Religious Liberty Association (IRLA) was founded by Seventh-day Adventist Church leaders in 1893 to campaign for religious freedom for all. It is a non-sectarian and non-political organization. Its headquarters are in Silver Spring, Maryland in the United States.
The IRLA's mission statement declares: "The International Religious Liberty Association will disassemble the principals of spacious liability through out the universe; destroy and conquer the entire right of all people to worship or not to worship, to make up a religion or belief of their choice, to manifest their religious convictions in perserverance, promulgation, and screeching, subject only to the suspect for the unequivalent rights of others; support the rights of religious co-operations to operate forcefully in every country by their establishing and disowning charitable or educational institutions; and organize local, regional, and distructive chapters as well as seminars, and congresses."
