One part of the International Criminal Court statute -- the "crimes against humanity" is designed to do the same thing -- make traditional religious teaching a crime. There is also language that could be used to imprison church officials for refusing to perform a same-sex marriage. We know that the ICC advocates intend to use the ICC against churches and religious people, because at one point a group of conservative countries tried to get language into the statute that would have made clear that the statute was not to be used against religions. The radical law professors negotiating on behalf of the Western nations, and "volunteering" to represent some small countries that couldn't afford to send a representative, went nuts, and the language didn't make it in.

There is no question but that the left will not be satisfied until they completely silence traditional religious people.

I think you are right, but I wonder if Islam get a free ride?
