"A Triumph for Human Rights"

I can't believe I haven't seen any coverage of this on any of the major mainstream news media sites! Arie Hoekman of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) spoke in Mexico City last month, and declared that families are not in crisis, but rather: "We are in the presence of...the rise of new values centered in the recognition of fundamental human rights."

Mexico has rising crime rates, as well as high rates of divorce and out-of-wedlock births. Leonardo Casco, a Honduran member of the Pontifical Council for the Family, does not see anything to celebrate about the breakdown of the traditional family. He told LifeSiteNews that "after 45 years of birth control, the pill, disrespect for marriage for the family, for children, etc, this is the result. Because of that we have violence, war, lack of respect of women, children."

See LifeSiteNews for their full report. I wish I could think of something smart to say about this, but I'm flabbergasted.

I think it's time to join in

I don't know if I'm going to have anything worthwhile to talk about, or be able to say something original. I just know that things seem to be changing too fast, and a lot of the "change" isn't stuff I believe in. I've been lurking around a lot of blogs lately and realized there are other people who feel like I do and I think it's time to get involved in the fight for traditional families. I don't know what I'll do, yet, but this blog is where I'm starting.
