Dear Colleague,
This is perhaps the most outrageous thing I have seen in all my 17 years at the UN. A UN Committee has told the Catholic Church to let kids have sex, contraception and abortions. This simply boggles the imagination. We have launched a petition drive to defend the Church at the UN. Please go to www.defendtheholysee.org and sign, and then send to your entire address book. Stefano Gennarini reports.
Rebecca Oas reports on an outrageous new report from UNESCO that says education of children should include acceptance of homosexuality and abortion. This is the world we live in, folks.
Spread the word, most especially about the petition in support of the Church at the UN. We intend to deliver all the signatures to the UN and also to the Church in New York, Geneva (seats of the UN) and Rome. www.defendthevatican.org or www.defendtheholysee.org
Do it now.
Yours sincerely,
Austin Ruse

UNESCO Report Promotes Abortion and Same-Sex Narrative
By Rebecca Oas, Ph.D.
NEW YORK, February 5 (C-FAM) The UN's educational and cultural agency says that the purpose of educating children is not only to foster their literacy and social advancement, but also to teach them where and how to have an abortion and to increase their tolerance for same-sex behavior.
In its report, "Teaching and Learning: Achieving Quality for All" released last week, UNESCO said that educated women reduce their risk of dying from pregnancy complications by adopting better hygiene practices, having skilled birth attendants, recognizing symptoms of bleeding or high blood pressure, and "by assessing how and where to have an abortion."
