Quote of the Day
"Genuine human rights are
inalienable and must be universally respected and advanced. In consequence,
however, the term 'human right' must be strictly and prudently applied, lest it
become a rhetorical catch-all, endlessly expanded to suit the passing tastes of
the age. Such an elastic approach would discredit and undermine the very
concept of human rights. A responsible exercise of human rights necessarily
implies a faithful fulfillment of their corresponding responsibilities."
--Archbishop Bernardino Auza, Permanent Observer of the Holy See to the United Nations, July 12, 2016
