Representatives of the Group of Eight

                                        Russia against homodictatorship

Dear leaders of the Group of Eight,

the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate is turning to You. We fully support the position of Russia on the issue of rejection of homodictatorship. By this position, the Patriarchate protects God’s laws and basic human rights, especially the rights of defenceless children. Homodictatorship is hidden behind lofty phrases such as “rights of sexual minorities”.

Russia categorically refused to support the declaration of the G8 Summit in Chicago on the issue of perverted sexual minorities and their pseudo-rights. Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, Sergey Ryabkov, pointed out that under international law there are no specific standards that would secure protection of perverted sex groups or a right to the so-called gender transsexual folly. In fact, it is schizophrenia according to which a man may declare – despite the reality – that he is a woman and vice versa. Russia can not agree with privileging the perverted LGBT people. Otherwise, the majority of moral inhabitants will be discriminated against and deprived of their rights. In Moscow, the vast majority of residents and government officials consider it unacceptable that under the guise of protection of the so-called sexual minorities an aggressive propaganda should be unleashed which will destroy all moral values of the Russian society.

In four cities in Russia (St. Petersburg, Ryazan, Arkhangelsk and Kostroma) laws were adopted that punish with fines the promotion of paedophilia, homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality and transgenderism among minors. At the same time, politicians attempt to pass an anti-homosexual bill at federal level. Within the framework of the protection against this moral infection that destroys the young generation, the Russian government sees as necessary to prohibit any public events of homosexuals and other perverted groups.

Homosexuals threaten with the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate asks: What does the Court in Strasbourg do to protect the rights of defenceless children against homosexual aggression and felonious juvenile justice which without trial and without real guilt removes children from normal families and sells them into sexual slavery to homosexuals and paedophiles and many even for organs? These are crimes against humanity which the Strasbourg Court is not only silent on but even supports them.

The Group of Eight, except for Japan, is comprised of Christian nations: America, Canada, Great Britain, France, Germany and, especially, papal Italy. The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate is shocked at how it is it possible that You, representatives of Christian nations, impose anti-Christian and criminal antilaws on the whole world. This is programmed destruction of all moral and human values. The purpose of this policy is to establish a totalitarian dictatorship which will lead to the genocide (reduction) of nations.

The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate expresses its gratitude to the Russian government before the whole world for its courageous stand against homodictators in the G8.
