So, is this the end of the UN?

the presenter is stupid saying oh i dont want to be apart of the UN,s collective will, the fact is its only this and a couple of things the UN has been retarded over, the presenter should make it clear that he dosent want to be part of something that is not rational ore beneficial to the majority.

While this is scary enough, the report is a bit lacking. It is only in the Human Rights Council of the UN that theese descicions has been made. The Human Rights Council has no power over the member states of the UN and has no authority except to make recommendations to the General Assembly. The General Assembly has no authority except to advise the Security Council.

But that makes this no less infuriating, as this article will tell you:

I can just see Christian fundie brains swelling with the troubling idea that they can't criticize Islam but at the same time could stop people from insulting Jeebus.

What a fucking joke.

The UN is already a fucking bunch of useless clownshoes, did we even hear a peep out of them over Israel vs Palestine recently?

Or how about extending the same rights to atheists, agnostics, wiccan's, satanists and every other flavour of person belief or lack thereof... Oh, they aren't large religions? Wow, too bad.

The UN is quickly following the path of the League of Nations.
