 UN Chronicle | Unlearning Intolerance : Elimination of All Forms of Religious Intolerance
In a break from tradition, the General Assembly passed a resolution condemning anti-Semitism, Islamophobia and Christianophobia as part of a broader text against religious intolerance.
The adoption of resolution 59/199, “Elimination of all forms of religious intolerance”, marks the culmination of arduous negotiations, especially involving the Netherlands, which sponsored the draft on behalf of the European Union (EU), members of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) and Israel.
Although, the text mentioned two other main religious groups—Islam and Christianity—she said it was a disparity in the “terminology” that did not go very well with her country.

 Petrified Truth: Europe - rise or fall?
Numerous analysts suggest that the spreading "Christianophobia" is tied to a Europe-wide spiritual malaise that is pushing the Continent toward broad cultural and economic decline.
Others describe a more complicated process, in which--as the last vestiges of established religions are disappearing in various European nations--a new spiritual awakening may be taking place.
They point to a widespread upsurge of nonhierarchical, populist Christian movements across Europe and into other continents, claiming hundreds of thousands of mainly youngish followers who seek ways of making Christian beliefs real in their lives and work.

Recently appointed the Vatican "secretary for relations with states", which is to say, the Pope's foreign minister, Archbishop Lajolo is now carrying the ball for the Vatican on the issue of international religious freedom.
He has carried it, unfortunately, right into the United Nations, where he is trying to get something he calls "Christianophobia" put on the international Index, together with "anti-Semitism" and "Islamophobia", two other Official Bad Things which the U.N. already pretends to discountenance.
The U.N. is an incredibly corrupt organization (as the U.S. congressional inquiry into the vast "oil for food" scandal is now demonstrating), and a great bellows for empty moral declarations.

As a European living in the United States and working for freedom of religion and belief, I was astonished to read "European, Not Christian." Separating church and state does not equal "Christianophobia." As a result of this separation, America has a degree of religious freedom and diversity that is without parallel in human history.
After centuries of religious conflict, Europe has finally embraced the surest guarantee of freedom and peace: the complete separation of religion and government.
