UNITED NATIONS DECLARES THE HOLY SEE LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE TO INDIGENOUS PEOPLES FOR EFFECTS AND LEGACY OF RACIST COLONIAL BULLS AND DOCTRINES
14 January 2016
As the result of a comprehensive shadow report and presentations by members of the Apache-Nde-Nnee Working Group submitted to the United Nations (UN) Committee on the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) for the Committee's review of the Holy See, the UN CERD Committee has recognized that the Doctrine of Discovery, the Holy See's Inter Caetera and related Papal Bulls are within the legal scope of racial discrimination under International Law and therefore require redress.
The UN CERD Committee has also recognized in its concluding observations that the Holy See is responsible for the past and present effects, i.e. the ongoing legacy, of these historical racist legal documents, and that, in addition, the Holy See must be in direct dialogue with appropriate representatives of Indigenous Peoples to discuss its accountability.
The CERD Committee has additionally recognized that the Holy See, in its response to the Committee's questioning regarding issues raised by the Apache-Nde-Nnee Working Group, remarked that a high-level meeting between Indigenous Peoples and the Pope regarding the canonization of Juniper Serra (see pages 13, 14, 27, 28, 30, 34, 35, 38, 48 of the shadow report) will occur at an unspecified time in the future, but that knowledge of such a meeting with Indigenous Peoples has thus-far excluded the Apache-Ndee Nnee and Working Group, as well as the additional issues raised in the shadow report, such as the the Doctrine of Discovery, the Holy See's Inter Caetera and related Papal Bulls, and the past and ongoing effects and legacy therein. The CERD Committee has concluded that these issues and appropriate representatives of Indigenous Peoples must be included in said high-level meeting.
With the support of the UN CERD Committee and its Concluding Observations therein, the Apahche-Nde-Nnee Working Group holds firm and demand that this dialogue between the Pope and Indigenous Peoples must indeed occur, and must include the Apache-Ndee-Nnee Working Group and the issues of the Apache-Ndee Nnee, including those issues raised in the Working Group's shadow report, for full accountability of the Holy See and justice to occur. These dialogues must result in genuine redress and remedy and in the establishment or supporting of the establishment of one or more related Truth Commission(s). Moreover, such a Truth Commission must occur with respect to self-determination, historical correction, and the rights of women and all affected peoples therein.
Follow-up by the UN CERD Committee on the progress of the Holy See in these measures will occur at the Committee's next review of the Holy See, as per the Committee's Concluding Observations.
Meanwhile, in the present, our freedoms, way of life -- and the very existence of our people -- are under attack by an infantile culture who means to wipe us out and replace us with that which was considered backward in the West in the earliest phase of the Dark Ages.
There isn't anyone apologizing for the constant erosion of our freedom of expression -- and our women being subject to huge increases in sexual assaults by those who expect us to assimilate to them in our own homelands.
Regarding the guilt that apparently should further sap our will to survive as a people over how the two hemispheres of humanity came together, I offer this:
The only primates that are native to the Americas all have tails.
Homo sapiens is an invasive African species. Those who call themselves "native" are only the first ones here. Natural History does not allow any species or genetic variety to claim "dibs."
Prior to the European contact with the Americas, the first Americans were happily enslaving, raiding, conquering and cutting each others hearts out.
If it so happened that they had the superior technology and 'discovered' Europe first, the contact would not have been any nicer.
It was inevitable that the tribes of humanity would find each other and the process was not going to be pretty all of the time.
There are no clean hands in human interaction. Every tribe has had its turn on each side of the whip.
We should concern ourselves with what's going on right now. Freedom is under attack on all fronts and that concerns the entirety of humanity, because tyranny is the cause of poverty, war and injustice, not the continued existence of Whitey.
Bringing civilization to entire continents is nothing to be ashamed off.
So the UN now claims jurisdiction, not only over religious teachings, but also religious activities out of the historical past?
Good Lord.
I’m sure Francis agrees.
Unless I am misunderstanding something here. The Holy See is not a member of the United Nations (its not a state), neither is the Vatican (which is a state). And the writings of the Catholic Church are not a nations writings. They are the writings of the church. The UN has no jurisdiction here.
The Mayas and Aztecs are due for a windfall.................
From the original article:
“...While welcoming the statement made by Pope Francis in the Plurinational State of Bolivia in July 2015, in which he apologized for the actions of the Catholic Church in the context of colonialism against indigenous peoples in the Americas.”
A hard Leftist such as the current Pope certainly would not bring himself to also point out the the Catholic Church is responsible for preserving the works of Western civilization after Rome fell, and acknowledging the rightly sainted Charles Martel for staving off an Islamic conquest of Europe that would have resulted in our civilization being utterly destroyed — and the entirety of humanity being set back, politically, socially, economically and technologically for centuries if not millennia.
Yeah, maybe now they can go back to human sacrifice.
And here I thought he was accountable to God.
Well-stated.
They think God has the deepest pockets.
Hmm.
There is the passage about sowing what one reaps.
And I am not talking about what Spanish and Portuguese did hundreds of years ago.
The Vatican is a state and maintains diplomatic relations with most nations of the world.
Indigenous peoples were always fighting each other, so which indigenous tribe owes reparations to which other indigenous tribe? This is just another "gang up on whitey" ruse.
Dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria.
Satire. . has to be.
Looks like the U.N. has New York values.
The Jews after Mohammet are in for a huge windfall.
Actually, everyone in Mohammets (may piss be onto him) path.
Said it before, say it again. US OUT OF UN, UN OUT OF US.Cut off tge funds from these degenerate tribal dictators and their third world Tyrannies and they will COLLAPSE. Only the US CHAMBER OF Commerce, the Council of Foreign Relations, Bilderbergers and other elements of the unelected crony capitalist shadow government keep our involvement with these miserable bastards viable.
Then the UN by the same reasoning should declare the Democrat Party responsible for their treatment of black Americans throughout history.
