From an email from
C-Fam:, a Catholic group that monitors and lobbies the UN on pro-family issues:
Dear Colleague,
Radical pro-abortion youth have written a document that the UN General Assembly is considering accepting. This would be disastrous. The document was written under the careful scrutiny of the UN Population Fund and International Planned Parenthood Federation. It calls for all the usual craziness: abortion on demand, comprehensive sex education…all for kids!
Another group of young people have drafted a counter document that we will present to the UN later this month or early next month. This document will show the UN that radical youth DO NOT TALK FOR ALL YOUTH!In order to make the necessary big splash, we need as many signatures as we can get. We need you to please sign THIS document right now and then send this note to everyone in your address book? Will you put this email up on Facebook? Will you circulate it among all of your family and friends.
I am often asked what you can do to help our cause at the UN. Here is something you can do that will make a HUGE DIFFERENCE!
UN delegations have requested our help in countering the radical youth document. Your signature on THIS document will help good pro-life delegations fight back against the radical pro-abortionists who want to undermine the morals of our children.
Act now and sign THIS document and then send this email to everyone you know.
Time is running out. We need 50,000 names in three weeks!Sincerely,
Austin Ruse
