Why human rights and Christian faith aren’t always compatible
Is the Christian faith compatibale with modern human rights?
A recent conflict between Amnesty International and the Roman Catholic Church in Northern Ireland has sparked questions as to whether the modern manifestation of human rights and the Christian faith can ever see eye-to-eye.
Catholics in Northern Ireland don’t want this human rights charity speaking in their schools because their views on abortion are in conflict with the Church’s pro-life position.
Their protest is not a dispute of the good that the charity does in other areas, but a challenge to the ethical system through which they operate.
