The Pygmy Leaf Chameleon, scarcely bigger than an ant, is one of the world’s smallest reptiles. This pair is not mating, the male is simply catching a ride on the back of the female until the time is right. (Madagascar - BBC)

If the world we are forced to accept is false, and nothing is true, then anything is possible.

The United Nations issued its first condemnation of discrimination against gays, lesbians and transgender people on Friday in a cautiously worded declaration hailed by supporters including the United States as a historic moment. Members of the UN Human Rights Council narrowly voted in favour of the resolution put forward by South Africa, against strong opposition from African and Islamic countries. “You just witnessed a historic moment at the Human Rights Council and within the UN system with a landmark resolution protecting human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people,” U.S. ambassador Eileen Chamberlain Donahoe told reporters after the vote. Couched in delicate diplomatic language, the resolution commissions a study of discrimination against gays and lesbians around the world, the findings of which will be discussed by the Geneva-based council at a later meeting. The proposal went too far for many of the council’s 47-member states, including Russia, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and Pakistan. Representatives of those countries said
gay rights had nothing to do with human rights.
