… to Michael Farris, members of HSLDA, and other Christians afraid of the United Nations, the international community, and the big bad wolf in general.

Here is a news flash for all of you. The United Nations is NOT a governing agency. It is not one world government. There are several reasons for this. Primarily, it is not a governing agency because it was never intended to be such. If you read its charter (especially Ch. 1 Art. 2) you will see that. Secondarily, it cannot be a governing agency because it has no enforcement agent. There is no UN police force to enforce the so-called “laws” that the UN passes. Except that the UN doesn’t pass laws. Both the General Assembly and the Security Council pass Resolutions. The Security Council has the ability to back its Resolutions up with a peacekeeping force. But those peacekeeping forces must be multi-national and cannot engage in offensive manuvers. They operate under extremely strict rules of engagement.

It is up to the individual nations whether or not they will abide under the Resolutions passed by United Nations or any other multi-national assemblage. The United States does not have a very good track record of playing well with others in this regard when you consider recent history (Kyoto, Iraq, Guantanamo, etc.).

When Mike Farris writes and/or contributes to articles like this all he is doing is inflaming the emotions of those too busy and worn down by fear to do their own homework and learn what really goes on in New York and Brussels and around the world.
