UN Officials Draft Document to Include Homosexual Rights
Lifesite News ^ | March 29, 2007 | Samantha Singson

At the Human Rights Council in Geneva this week, a radical homosexual umbrella group released a homosexual rights document authored by several UN human rights officials that claims even the youngest children are capable of discerning their sexual identity. It adds they should be given governmentally protected free reign to express that identity.

The document goes on to demand revision of international and national laws to reflect these and other ideas on the far frontier of social policy.

Called the Yogyakarta Principles, the document lists 29 rights that already exist in binding international law such as the right to life and freedom from torture, and reinterprets each one to include homosexual rights. Based upon the idea that “international human rights law imposes an absolute prohibition of discrimination in regard to the full enjoyment of all human rights,” the Principles assert that nations are legally bound to change their constitutions and penal codes to incorporate homosexual rights.

The Principles also assert that states that must force changes in school curricula, facilitating “access" by those who seek sex change operations, “the right to express identity or personhood, including through speech deportment, dress, bodily characteristics, choice of name or any other means”, non-discrimination “against asylum seekers on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity and “the right to found a family, including through access to adoption or assisted procreation (including donor insemination)”.

I don't want to get all riled up, bad for the heart and all that. But when you take the "gay" agenda, something called "Human Rights" and the "UN" all in one sentence, it's a witches' brew of something truly evil. What really sickens me is why the supposed conservatives put up with the UN. Why doesn't anyone expose it for the foul nest that it is? I know it's sort of exposed here and there, but why does the US gov't tolerate it???
