Interview With a Signer of the Anti Gay Marriage "Manhattan Declaration"

This week, 150 Christian religious leaders unveiled the Manhattan Declaration: A Call to Christian Conscience, named after our very own borough. It's a manifesto signed by prominent Christian leaders that calls for staunch opposition to things like abortion, gay marriage, and other satatanic liberal agendas. Runnin' Scared spoke with one of the signers, Dr. Ronald Sider, a Canadian-born professor of theology at a Pennsylvania seminary and founder of Evangelicals for Social Action. Runnin' Scared: The Manhattan Declaration. Why was it named after Manhattan? I don't really know. I wasn't involved in the early drafting. It just happened the framers met in Manhattan. RS: Is it an attempt to stick it to the gay rights movement, which was founded in this city? I don't think so. I haven't heard anything about that. It certainly never crossed my mind.
