In 2007 the Vatican officially stated in two proclamations that the Noahide Laws are "incumbent on all humanity". The Pontiff Jean–Louis Cardinal Tauran stated that it is humanity's "duty" to establish Noahide norms in society. The Vatican also states that the Noahide Laws come from the Biblical books of Genesis 9:9-12 and Acts 15:28-29... we will show below that this is not true. This means the Vatican joins the United States government (here) and the United Nations (here) in officially recognizing the Noahide Laws, adding to the Noahide agenda's list of allies.

Vatican Declares The Noahide Laws 

To Be "Incumbent On All Humanity"

Vatican says there are limits to individual human freedoms and freedom of choice is not absolute. The Noahide Laws are incumbent on all of humanity. The Noahide Laws come from the Bible books of Genesis 9:9-12 and Acts 15:28-29.

God has created the human person as a social being which by definition places limits on individual human freedom. Moreover freedom of choice is derived from God and therefore is not absolute, but must reflect Divine will and law. Accordingly human beings are called to freely obey the Divine will as manifested in the Creation and in His revealed word.
Jewish tradition emphasizes the Noachide Covenant (cf. Gn 9: 9-12) as containing. the universal moral code which is incumbent on all humanity. This idea is reflected in Christian Scripture in the Book of Acts 15: 28-29.

Catholic Pontiff says it is a "duty" to establish Noahide norms in society

After the deluge and the covenant with Noah and his descendants, the road to divine goodness was opened through faithfulness to so-called “Noahic” precepts, which can be summarized with the prohibition of idolatry and violence against our neighbors, and with the duty to establish a society that is regulated according to just norms (cf. Genesis 9:1-17)

The Noahide Laws 

Do Not Come From The Bible

The Vatican stated that the Noahide Laws come from the Biblical books of Acts and Genesis, we prove below this is not true from the Bible books themselves and from scholarly Jewish sources

Genesis does not delineate the whole of Noahide Law 

12 God said, “This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations: 13 I set my rainbow in the cloud, and it will be a sign of a covenant between me and the earth. 14 When I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow will be seen in the cloud, 15 and I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh, and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy all flesh. 16 The rainbow will be in the cloud. I will look at it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” 17 God said to Noah, “This is the token of the covenant which I have established between me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

- Genesis 9:9-12

Acts does not enumerate all the Noahide Laws

For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no greater burden on you than these necessary things: 29 that you abstain from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from things strangled, and from sexual immorality, from which if you keep yourselves, it will be well with you. Farewell.”

- Acts 15:28-29

The Noahide Laws come from the Talmud, not the Bible - 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia

Although only those laws which are found in the earlier chapters of the Pentateuch, before the record of the revelation at Sinai, should, it would seem, be binding upon all mankind, yet the Rabbis discarded some and, by hermeneutic rules or in accordance with some tradition (see Judah ha-Levi, “Cuzari,” iii. 73), introduced others which are not found there... Thus,the Talmud frequently speaks of “the seven laws of the sons of Noah,” which were regarded as obligatory upon all mankind, in contradistinction to those that were binding upon Israelites only (Tosef., ‘Ab. Zarah, ix. 4; Sanh. 56a et seq.).

Jewish Scholar confirms the Noahide Law do not come from the Bible but Jewish tradition

Moses Mendelssohn, a Jewish philosopher and major figure in the Jewish enlightenment... Mendelssohn added that the Noahide laws are seemingly not learned by exegesis – there is no clear-cut Biblical reference to them – but only through the Jewish tradition.
