HUMAN RIGHTS and JUSTICE

The Nature and source of human rights

An ability to distinguish between truth and falsehood, good and evil, justice and injustice,
is endemic in the human person,and is perceptible to human reason.

A strikingly similar sense of morality, which cuts across cultures and religions, is evident.

Any definition of "rights" must be based on what is right and just.
A "right to do wrong" is a contradiction both in terms and in fact.

Human rights are inalienable

Government is not the source of rights, which are intrinsic and inalienable.
If rights were conferred by the State, the State could take them away, hence they would not be inalienable.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights,
that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"
                                                                                             American Declaration of Independence

The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights (1948)

The Declaration was accepted as an international standard, and is still citged as such, despite relentless, and largely successful pressure, to effect changes at local, national and international level (including the UN itself and the EU)

These changes constitute a violation of the rights themselves.

Here is the text of that important document

Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person (Article 3)

Abortion and euthanasia to be considered as rights

Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion,
have the right to marry and to found a family.

"Marriage" being redefined to mean a union of two persons of the same sex, whereby there can be
no possibility of founding a natural family.

The family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society
and is entitled to protection by society and the State. (Article 16)

The family no longer considered to be natural or fundamental,
and is undergoing continual attack with a view to securing its dissolution.

Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance.
All children, whether born in or out of wedlock, shall enjoy the same social protection (Article 25)

Motherhood and childhood are stripped of protection, care or assistance,
as exemplified by widespread unrestricted abortion, deprivation of children of parental protection,
and, in some cases, deprived of a right to a mother and a father.

NOTE:  The UN Declaration of the Rights of the Child (1959) states:

"Whereas the child, by reason of his physical and mental immaturity, needs special safeguards and care, including appropriate legal protection, before as well as after birth ...
Mankind owes to the child the best it has to give"

The pre-born child is considered "not to be a person", and is described in most abominable terms,
such as a "parasite", a "tumor" and so on, and is robbed of legal protection through all nine months
of pregnancy for any reason. There are those who persistently and relentlessly seek to impose a
so-called "right to abortion" internationally. Such attempts occur within the UN itself.

In all areas of life the welfare of the child is coming to be universally subordinated to the desires of individual adults.
The child is stripped of a right to a mother and a father, and of a right to know his or her own biological parents,
to appease the arrogant demands of a very small minority. The "gay" lobby constitutes only a minor part
of those who experience same-sex attraction, most of whom appreciate a right to privacy. To play an
adult game of make-believe, children are demanded to serve as toys.

How can humanity have become so desensitised as to condone such gross abuse,
masquerading as "rights"? This has taken place in a space of fifty years.

Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion
This right includes ... freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private,
to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance (Article 18)

Religious freedom violated, and religious expression in public forbidden

Attempts to replace freedom of religion with "freedom of worship", such as exists in Commuinist China.
Permissable to attend church, but no other religious rights. All religious expression or practice outside
the church building prohibited.

Conscience rights violated

Members of the medical profession to be compelled to participate in abortion and euthanasia.

So-called rights of "sexual diversity", which go much further than same-sex "marriage"

These pseudo-rights must always override any claim to freedom of conscience.
Acceptance of forms of "diversity", which, in the not-too-far-distant future, may include paedophilia, to be enforced.

Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children (Article 26)

Compulsory indoctrination in homosexuality from earliest childhood
in places where same-sex "marriage" has been legalised.

Demands of a "right to comprehensive sex education" in violation of parental rights.
Parents have no idea of how "comprehensive" it is. Namely teaching sexual activity from kindergarten up,
which includes every possible form of depravity.

Group rights and "gender diversity"

An understanding of human rights has been based on the rights of every individual person on a basis of equality.
More recently, however, a concept of group rights has been introduced. According to this perception, a few specified
minority groups, perceived as being in need of protection, have been assigned a privileged status, not accorded to others. In theory the purpose of this is to safeguard rights of authentic disadvantaged groups.
In practice, however, ideologically motivated lobbyists have been aggressively working to confer these privileges
on politically motivated groups, whose agenda is at variance with genuine rights of the majority.

Foremost among these groups are those calling for "sexual diversity rights"
According to this hypothesis, there are a variety of "genders", no longer considered as two only, male and female, as demonstrated by biological science. A theory of "gender mainstreaming" has been debated in the United Nations.

These various "genders" have been classified as homosexual, bisexual, and transexual.
"Diversity" does not stop there, however, being extended to include a wide range of sexual depravity.

There have already been suggestions that paedophilia be added to a list of such diversities, in need of being
"protected from discrimination". Age of consent is being systematically lowered, to protect pedophiles from
being charged with this horrendous crime, and have their condition labelled as "sexual orientation"

Dutch party pushes paedophilia

"Paedophile Protection Act", US Congress 2009

"In order that these people need not live in fear, because of who they are".
Is this line of thinking also to be applied to compulsive killers?
Potential victims live in fear because of what these people do.

The consequences are mind-boggling!

Such trasvesty of justice was associated with a debate on "hate-speech legislation"
Those who "discriminate" against "sexual diversity" are considered to be motivated by hate.

Such legislation has been in place in Canada for some time

Morality and Religion

Moral principles, which religion enjoins, are perceived by lobbyists to constitute an obstacle to imposing
such agendas. Hence religion, especially Christianity, is targeted for elimination. Religious expression is
to besilenced, in violation of a right of freedom of speech.  The next step could be criminalisation of Christianity.
