COMMITTEE ON THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES - GENEVA

EUROPEAN CENTRE FOR LAW AND JUSTICE

WARNING: The UN Human Rights Committee wants to impose the Universal Legalisation of Abortion and Euthanasia.

The UN Human Rights Committee is currently revising the definition of the “Right To Life” in International Law. It contemplates imposing on every State the Legalisation of Abortion, of Assisted Suicide and of Euthanasia, in the very name of the Right To Life !!!

These lobbies of the “Culture Of Death” are about to win a decisive victory, in the greatest discretion. The final Text will be adopted in the upcoming months. It is still possible to stop this manoeuvre.

Support the action of the ECLJ before the Committee in co-signing the pleading that it will submit and in sharing this alert.

The Committee, on The Rights of Persons

with Disabilities, of The United Nations,

officially stated that Abortion of Children,

because of a disability, violates The Convention

on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

While an important pressure takes place to impose the Legalisation of Eugenic Abortion, The Committee on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities of The United Nations has just declared, in AN OFFICIAL DOCUMENT, that “Laws, which explicitly allow for Abortion on grounds of impairment, violate The Convention on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities (Art,. 4,5,8)”. 

This Committee further explained that this type of Abortion is often based on inaccurate diagnosis and that “even if it is not false, the assessment perpetuates notions of stereotyping Disability as incompatible with a good life”.

In this Declaration, The Committee on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities directly opposes The Human Rights Committee, which has undertaken the re-interpretation of the “Right To Life” as implying a Right To Abortion, “most notably . . . when the Foetus suffers from fatal impairment”. The Committee on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities asks for the removal of this assessment.

The Declaration of The Committee on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities is very important. It reminds, once again, of the necessity to firmly oppose the Eugenic temptation, which relies on disdaining weakness.

Similarity with Nazi ideology denounced.

In 1947, already, the writers of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights had to oppose the attempt aiming at allowing the “Prevention Of The Birth Of Children Mentally Handicapped” and children “Born From Parents Suffering From Mental Illness”. The similarity of these propositions with The Nazi ideology was then denounced.

The ECLJ rejoices in this Declaration, which goes along with its numerous interventions before The Human Rights Council. The ECLJ will continue to denounce Pre-Natal Eugenics, as well as Late Abortions, and to re-iterate the fact that The Rights To Life and To Care must be guaranteed to every person.

The Committee on The Rights of Persons with Disabilities also took a stand against a so-called “Right To Euthanasia”, for, according to them, it “perpetuates stereotypes about severely impaired people suffering and being BETTER OFF DEAD". Just like with Disabled Unborn Children . . .

The ECLJ also submitted a Memorandum to The Human Rights Committee in support of The Right To Life Memorandum which was supported by more than 130,000 persons. The ECLJ will attend the work sessions in Geneva, on 27 October 2017 and 1 November 2017 and 2 November 2017. We invite you to SIGN THIS PETITION and to share this information around you.

Thank you !

Salisbury Cathedral, formally known as The Cathedral Church of The Blessed Virgin Mary, is an Anglican Cathedral in Salisbury, England, and one of the leading examples of Early English Architecture. The main body of the Cathedral was completed in thirty-eight years, from 1220 to 1258.

Since 1549, the Cathedral has had the tallest Church Spire in The United Kingdom, at 404 feet (123m). Visitors can take the "Tower Tour", where the Interior of the hollow Spire, with its ancient wood scaffolding, can be viewed.

The Cathedral also has the largest Cloisters and the largest Cathedral Close in Britain (eighty acres (32 ha)). It contains the World's oldest working Clock (from 1386) and has the best surviving of the four original Copies of Magna Carta.

In 2008, the Cathedral celebrated the 750th Anniversary of its Consecration.

The Cathedral is The Mother Church of The Diocese of Salisbury and is the Seat of The Bishop of Salisbury, currently The Right Reverend Nick Holtam.

At Tierce [Editor: Terce], Sext and None, on Monday, are to be said the nine remaining parts of the Hundred and Eighteenth Psalm, three parts at each Hour. This Psalm having thus been said through in two days, that is, Sunday and Monday, let the nine Psalms, from the Hundred and Nineteenth to the Hundred and Twenty-Seventh, be said on Tuesday at Tierce, Sext and None – three at each Hour. And these Psalms are to be repeated at the same Hours every day until Sunday; the arrangement, moreover, of Hymns, Lessons and Versicles remaining the same throughout, so as always to begin on Sunday from the Hundred and Eighteenth Psalm.

Saint Benedict treats here of the great Psalm 118, with its 176 Verses divided into twenty-two Sections of eight verses each. The privileged place of Psalm 118 in Saint Benedict’s distribution of the Psalms merits consideration.

You will recall that in the ancient Roman Office, in vigour until The Reform of Pope Saint Pius X in 1911, Psalm 118 was recited in full every day. In Mediaeval Rome, Psalm 118 accompanied the Solemn Good Friday Procession with The Wood of The Cross, that made its way from The Lateran to The Basilica of The Holy-Cross–in–Jerusalem.

This Liturgical Practice suggests that the very Psalm, that begins with the words Beati immaculati in via (Blessed are the undefiled in the way), accompanies us along the Via Crucis (The Way of The Cross), by which, as Saint Benedict says in the Prologue, we follow The Lord Christ, our True King, ad gloriam (to glory).

With his characteristic discretion, Saint Benedict reserves Psalm 118 (Beati immaculati) to Sunday, The Day of The Lord, the day par excellence of Lectio Divina, assigning the overflow of Verses to Monday.

Psalm 118 is a long, rapturous Litany in Praise of The Law. It was by means of The Law that God made known His Heart—the splendour of His Truth, the Glory of His Beauty, the Immensity of His Goodness—to Israel. It is as if the Psalmist finds himself at a loss for words to describe the munificent self-revelation of God to Israel.

With the mystical accents of a lover, the Psalmist sings of the word of The Lord, of His Precepts, His Commandments, His Ordinances, His Statutes, His Laws, His Will, His Righteousness, His Justice, His Mercy, and His Utterances. Having exhausted all that he can say, he fails even to begin to approach the splendour of what God has revealed to Israel !

The Rabbis of old referred to The Torah, The Law, as “The Way, The Truth, and The Life”. When Our Lord applied these three words to Himself, saying, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to The Father, but by Me” (John 14:6), He was, in effect, revealing Himself as The True Torah, The Fulfillment of The Law and of The Prophets. 

For us, Psalm 118 becomes a Litany of Love addressed to The Word, a long contemplation of The Face of Christ, a Confession of His Holiness, His Beauty, His Goodness, and His Mercy. Blessed Paul Giustiniani writes somewhere of The Body of Jesus as The New Torah Scroll, written in blood; rolled open and fixed with Nails to The Wood of The Cross, The Five Wounds of Jesus are The New Pentateuch, in which The Love of The Father is revealed. “For The Law was given by Moses; Grace and Truth came by Jesus Christ.” (John 1:17).

There is a fresh spiritual joy in the weekly return of Psalm 118. It is an integral part of The Day of The Lord, spilling over into the Feria Secunda [Editor: Monday], the second day of the week. Of all the Psalms, it is the one that I can Pray most directly to Christ, offering Him Verse after Verse in Adoration and in Love.

Saint Benedict begins The Weekly Psalter with Psalm 1 on Monday at Prime; he assigns The Gradual Psalms, or Psalms of Ascent, to The Little Hours of Tuesday through to Friday. Thus do we pass from the Psalm that begins, “Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in The Law of The Lord” (Psalm 118:1), to walking all the way to The Heavenly Jerusalem. “I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into The House of The Lord” (Psalm 121:1).

The following Text is from Wikipedia - the free encyclopaedia.

The Church of Saint Andreas is a Roman Catholic Parish Church situated in Düsseldorf, Germany. It is The Priory Church of the local Community of Dominican Friars, who also administer the much older Saint Lambertus Church.

The Church, Dedicated to Saint Andrew, was constructed between 1622 and 1629 in The South German Baroque Style. It was originally a Jesuit Church and also served as The Court Church for The Counts Palatine of Neuburg (House of Palatinate-Neuburg).

After The Dissolution of The Jesuit Order, in August 1773, it served as a Parish Church until 2005, when it became The Monastery Church of The Dominican Order. The building itself is now owned by The City of Düsseldorf.

The Church is furnished with stucco, by Johannes Kuhn from Strassburg, and life-size sculptures of The Apostles and of Saints of The Society of Jesus.

In the Late-17th- and Early-18th-Centuries, the Church was an important centre of Musical Culture in Düsseldorf. The composer Johann Hugo von Wilderer served as its Organist. The Mausoleum, designed by Venetian architect Simone del Sarto, contains the tombs of several Electors Palatine, including that of Johann Wilhelm.

The High Altar of the Church was destroyed during World War II. The new Altar, designed by Ewald Mataré, was built in 1960. Paintings by Ernst Deger can be found in the Church's two Side Altars, which are Dedicated to The Virgin Mary.

In 1972, the Church came under the Pastoral Care of the local Community of Dominican Friars and became their Priory Church.

The Organ dates back to an instrument built in 1782 by Peter Kemper, in a Casing by Bernhard Orlinski and Josef Zimmermann. In World War II, the Organ was damaged. In 1953, it was restored and expanded by eighteen Stops by the Organ builder Fabritius. In 1970 and 2003, the Organ was restored by Rudolf von Beckerath Orgelbau.
