The term minority as used in the United Nations human rights system usually refers to national or ethnic, ***religious*** (emphasis added) and linguistic minorities, pursuant to the United Nations Minorities Declaration. .... .... According to a definition offered in 1977 by Francesco Capotorti, Special Rapporteur of the United Nations Sub-Commission on Prevention of Discrimination and Protection of Minorities, a minority is: A group numerically inferior to the rest of the population of a State, in a non-dominant position, whose members - being nationals of the State - possess ethnic, ***religious*** (emphasis added) or linguistic characteristics differing from those of the rest of the population and show, if only implicitly, a sense of solidarity, directed towards preserving their culture, traditions, religion or language Unquoute [Source: <http://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/Minorities/Pages/internationallaw.aspx>.] Also: Quote In 1992, in its resolution 47/135, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed the Declaration on the Rights of Persons Belonging to National or Ethnic, ***Religious*** (emphasis added) and Linguistic Minorities.
