INTRODUCTION OF THE ISSUE AND CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING THE U. N. DECLARATION ON HUMAN RIGHTS
The “Human Rights Declaration” (passed by the United Nations in 1948), and the “Faith in Human Rights Declaration’ (written for the 60th Anniversary of the Declaration), support human life, and speak out against violations which would result in loss of life and suffering (i.e. torture, murder, genocide, domestic violence, slavery, etc.).
The original Declaration provides a basis by which the International Criminal Court has ordered the arrest of President Omar al‐Bashir of Sudan for his complicity and leadership in the murder of 300,000 Africans, and the displacement of 2.5 million Africans from their homes in Darfur. These Declarations contain not one word regarding homosexuality or homosexual marriage.
Read the attached documents for yourselves. Do not be moved, or shaken by those who with malicious lies, and for devious ulterior motives, would divide us and defame the character of our leader who was honored to sign the Faith in Human Rights Declaration, a noble document.
