This UN "expert" is essentially telling traditional Christians, Orthodox Jews, Muslims and Roman Catholics that they must abandon thousands of years of religious teachings in order to preserve LGBTQ+ dignity and self-realization.
Madrigal-Borloz expressed particular anger at Hungary because the central European nation had declared itself in 2020 to be a Christian nation, and had proclaimed "the mother is a woman, and the father is a man." Apparently, this obvious truth is controversial at the UN. Finally, Madrigal-Borloz blasted religious exemptions, laws and court rulings that allow Christians, including those associated with business, to opt out of participating in same-sex marriages and related LGBTQ+ events.
It is disturbing to ponder the fact that Madrigal-Borloz's outrageous demands are virtually identical to the public policy positions of the Biden administration.
In view of that, we don't expect the White House to decry the UN providing a platform for an attack on religious liberty.
The UN bureaucracy is at war with all religions, but particularly Orthodox Judaism and Christianity. In April, at another event, the UN signaled that laws prohibiting adults having sexual relations with children needed to be revisited. An international outcry led to a hasty UN retreat.
In the United States, we are blessed to have a Bill of Rights that guarantees us the freedom of religion. That religious freedom doesn't end, nor can it be restricted merely because it offends UN bureaucrats or frustrates the LGBTQ+ political agenda. JDFI will continue to monitor international threats to religious liberty and to American sovereignty. And we will redouble our efforts to defend the religious liberty of all Americans.
