...iages," including so-called "civil unions." (end title)
This topic is for nations such as the Constitutional Monarchy of Kitsune Island who, while being members of the United Nations, are in utmost defiance of the law passed legalizing homosexual "marriages" and "civil unions" in all member nations.
This nation's reason for the purposeful ignorance of the stated and irrational law is as follows, as noted in the messages of the Kitsune Island region:
On the 30th of May, Year of Our Lord 2004, the Constitutional Monarchy of Kitsune Island does hereby recognize that in technicalities enforced by the United Nations it must recognize a "right to gay 'marriages.'" However, it holds a firm opposition of the supposed "right" and also firmly discourages homosexual relations in general, thus purposely conflicting with the United Nations laws, as it doubts that there is a way that such ridiculousness can be truly enforced. Thus, Kitsune Island, upon formal briefing on the issue, hereby completely ignores the United Nations ruling and refuses to recognize "gay marriage" and "gay civil unions" ad infinitun. Kitsune Island will, however, continue its official position of granting equal civil rights under the law to homosexuals both past and present, making it illegal to discriminate against homosexuals in employing, socializing, educating, et al. As stated semi-informally by the Monarch himself, King Miles Attacca: "They do have equal civil rights. And if they want to have at it in the bedroom, so be it. But we're not going to recognize so-called 'gay marriages' or 'homosexual civil unions,' because Kitsune Island has always and will continue to promote its position that marriage is sacred between a male and a female. May any gays or lesbians who hear this pack up for an über-liberal country if they wish, and if the United Nations wants to argue about it they can talk to me over official channels."
This is also now supplemented by the following:
Another reason for the defiance by the Constitutional Monarchy of Kitsune Island of the United Nations resolution legalizing homosexual "marriages" and "civil unions" is as follows: Kitsune Island does not believe that the United Nations has the right to interfere with religiously-oriented laws such as those relating to "gay marriages," and that such decisions should not be decided by majority but by allowing majority and minority alike to decide their own policies for their own nations. It may also be noted that each religion in a member state should and MUST be allowed to practice its own beliefs including and especially relating to the issue of "gay marriages" as per the declaration of "separation of Church and State," prohibiting the government(s) to respect OR prosecutre/interfere with an establishment of religion. As stated by the monarch, King Miles Attacca: "The United Nations was formed to pass laws relating to international workings such as essential rights and internationalization codes; deciding a religious/areligious position is not part of the duty it was formed to do, and severely distracts from that main purpose."
If enough support is gained for this idea, Kitsune Island proposes enacting a United Nations resolution to bring the decisions over "gay marriage" issues back to individual nations and to make sure that the only decision the United Nations can make over the issue is over the right of homosexuals to escape segregation persecution, including persecution in the social and educational schemes.
Kitsune Island also hereby states that the reason it has not resigned altogether from the United Nations is that it still holds hope that it can make a point to the other member-States, including in this case through open defiance of a passed law leaving a great minority "in a lurch." Civil disobedience has been used as a method of protest in the past, and it undoubtedly will in the future.
(It must also be noted that it's 12:25 AM where the King currently resides and that if any of this is starting to sound like utter rubbish, it will be noticed and corrected after a duly deserved rest.)
(It must also be noted that an error occured in adding the poll to this topic, and that I'll have to figure out how to get the extra survey areas removed...O_O...in the meantime, please use the first and third options ONLY; thank you.)
