Interesting. There's a fine line that justifies Christian civil
disobedience, but I think the state compelling you to deny your faith
would qualify...sorta a reverse crusade.

No one is compelling anyone to deny anything.

This is just another shouting, screaming, shrieking fund-raiser for
the "religious right:" Generate a lot of noise, predict an
apocalyptic disaster, then ask for money to stave off the disaster.

Ken, the population of the USofa is 300,000,000. Within that 300
million there are bound to be a few million who will sign anything,
anywhere, anytime. It's this fact that keeps the "religious right" in
business -- that pays for their $2,000 suits, their private jets, and
their multi-million $$$$ mansions.

If 5,500 have signed, what about the 299,994,500 who have NOT signed??

By the way, read the "Manhattan Declaration" -- ". . . our goal is to
have 1 million signatures by December 1." 5,500 is a LONG way from
1 million -- but I'm sure they can blame that failure on ACORN and
Tiger Woods.

`course, Paul says that you are to do no such thing:

1 Let every person be subject to the governing
authorities. For there is no authority except
from God, and those that exist have been
instituted by God.

2 Therefore he who resists the authorities
resists what God has appointed, and those who
resist will incur judgment.

3 For rulers are not a terror to good conduct,
but to bad. Would you have no fear of him who
is in authority? Then do what is good, and
you will receive his approval,

4 for he is God's servant for your good. But if
you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear
the sword in vain; he is the servant of God
to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.

--- Romans 13

Not that I personally agree, mind you.

Just sayin'

It's too complicated.

Kenny will not understand.
You need to express it in shorter words, fewer syllables.

Those who are home schooled cannot deal with complicated facts.
