UN Gay Rights Envoy: Religious Freedom ‘Not an Absolute Right’
Breitbart ^ | 6 Feb 2017 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

Posted on 02/07/2017 6:26:56 AM PST by detective

The United Nations envoy for gay rights has declared that when there is a clash between homosexual rights and religious liberty it must be recalled that “freedom of expression and religious freedom are not absolute rights and may be limited if necessary.”

In a recent public consultation, the UN’s newly appointed “independent expert” on the defense of LGTB rights, Vitit Muntarbhorn, said that negative moral judgments on homosexual activity were a recent phenomenon, stemming from “colonial law.”

Freedom of religion like freedom of speech is under attack.

He’ll bow down to the Islamofascists in Saudi Arabia who deny basic human rights of religion.

Screw the homofascists.

Unless it's Islam.

Praise be to Allah or else!

If freedom of religion is not an absolute right, then neither is his right to express his opinion.

Giving homosexuals the "right" to get married subordinates the very CORE of every faith on the planet. It goes against God.

There will be a RECKONING someday for this. It won't be pretty.

I’d pick Moehammedan. Less demanding of submission.

Can we draw the line just before where religious fanatics hurt or kill others?

I'm pretty sure that's not what he's talking about though, he wants to prevent Christians to speak out against his Extra Rights.

I suggest this clown make an immediate tour of Islamic member nations of the UN to spread the word. Without bodyguards.

It’s time to bring back real philosophy, including the study of natural rights. The Ctrl-Left “philosophy” is destroying the West, and we need to make sure our kids understand why the big government thugs are wrong. That’s what I did with my kids. They read Locke, the Federalist Papers, and the rest as teenagers, and none have gone over to the dark side, despite attending elite colleges.

Critical Theory and the rest of the leftist nonsense has nothing to do with reason, scholarship, or any positive aspect of morality. It should be crushed, and it has to be removed from education except to inoculate educated Americans against its errors.

The solution would be simple if Congress has the cajones to do it. Rework the Circuits and move half to two thirds of the judges in what is now the Ninth Circuit into other circuits just by redrawing the lines and make the judges move from where they sit (San Francisco) to someplace they do not want to sit (Salt Lake City). Look for mass retirements and resignations.

Freedom of Religion reigns supreme.

Except when it conflicts with liberal/leftist/democrat appetites, cravings, wants, desires, views, urges, thoughts, feelings or anything else.

We worship the Creator.

Liberals worship the masturbator.
