How is he wrong? In your worldview, there's no Authority higher than government – because you don't believe God exists. Government must determine rights in your worldview. And if government, in Ghana, has said you no longer have a right to engage in this abominable & destructive behaviour, that's final for you! You must except that without reservation – because otherwise, you must necessarily appeal to a god, who grants rights that precede government! If you don't acknowledge the existence God, then you have no right to claim that Ghana is doing something wrong.

No it’s a STRONGLY urged thing to allow by the very UN itself, the council of the most powerful and free nations on earth, and in a thousand different instances, they have both recommended and incentivized allowing gay marriage as its immorality is lacking in a secular world view, though that of issues such as pedophilia isn’t allowed for the obvious reasons of consent laws and lack of a child’s ability to consent. It’s a commonly accepted and stated thing by the more powerful and free nations that it’s no one’s business if two consenting adults marry, and ghat the persecution of gay people (which has risen dramatically since these policies have become mainstream in Ghana) is a disgraceful thing to accept or allow.

It does however promote certain aspects of politics to maximize the benefit of the most people, and when it makes statements or nations debate one another, these issues gain the attention that almost inevitably leads to pressuring for change, because, generally speaking, it makes the most people’s lives better. The UN itself is, at most, socially progressive, which doesn’t make it leftist by any means, especially in the economic sphere.

By saying "it does however" you have conceded that the United Nations is not a government. But that, you seem not to realise, destroys your last hope for getting off the hook with your human rights nonsense on this issue of Ghana – because I informed you that, in your perspective, government is the be-all-end-all on rights. If you disagree, congratulations! You're not an atheist, (or at least not a logically consistent one) because you're appealing to an Authority higher than government, which must of necessity by a made-up god, or God. But you responded, to my right… Read more
