UN International Criminal Court - Product of the Vatican

[scud]

The Vatican is responsible for or at least backing the one world court policy. It is not mentioned often, or at all for that matter how much of a role the vatican plays in the UN. I think it is important to consider this, they weild a staggering amount of power within the UN, this is something that should be taken to heart as the UN is baltently anti self defense and anti christian. Here is a link: http://www.ewtn.com/library/CURIA/STATICC.HTM

There are many UN policies that the vatican has had major influence on. Since they are behind the loss of rights and this disarmerment scheme I believe it is important that they are recognized for what they are, the ever present harmony between the Holy See and UN policy is disturbing.

I agree the connection is troubling but in a couple ways. The current Pope seems to be a supporter of the UN for unclear reasons. Especially since the UN so actively works against the Church on issues of population control and abortion.

Still I doubt that the Vatican has a great amount of influence on the UN. Because the Vatican is a country, it may have a seat at the UN, but I greatly doubt that they have many high-ranking officials on most committees.

Still Catholics can, in good faith, disagree with the Pope on many of his political ideas, Catholics believe only that the Pope can speak infallibly on issues of faith and morals.
