Music:Donate TodayUse our secure online system to to become a member and spread the word about progressive Christianity!Respond to Bush: Petition for PeaceIf Jesus said blessed are the peacemakers, Christians must respond to Bush's call for more war with pressing for case for peace.Sign the Mandate for PeacePresident Bush is calling for more troops in Iraq. But the American people elected a new Congress to start bringing troops home. Join an event in your community to say NO! to more troops (just click the buttons to the left.) Then we'll join Peace and Justice leaders in a March on Washington and deliver the Mandate for Peace petition, calling on Congress to get out of Iraq.Be part of it all by signing the Mandate for Peace petition. We'll deliver your signature along with tens of thousands of others to Congress at the end of the month. So be sure to sign, and then let all of your friends and family know about it too.For more information go to http://www.americasaysno.orgWe insist that the newly elected Congress, in its earliest days in office, pass legislation requiring the prompt removal of all US troops from Iraq and discontinue funding for military purposes in Iraq except the safe withdrawal of all U.S. forces.Additionally, Congress should:- Make real its existing stated commitment to no permanent US military bases in Iraq. - Support an Iraqi-led reconciliation process to shape a peaceful post-occupation transition. - Investigate and punish companies engaged in illegal war profiteering. - Commit significant funds to the reconstruction of Iraq, under the control and direction of Iraqis. - Provide funding for full benefits, adequate healthcare, and other support for returning servicemen and women. - Make every effort possible to ensure the peaceful resolution of conflicts with Iran and North Korea."Does America torture?Torture Is A Moral IssueA Statement of Conscience of the National Religious Campaign Against TorturePlease join the over 10,000 people who have already endorsed this statement.Torture violates the basic dignity of the human person that all religions hold dear. It degrades everyone involved -- policy-makers, perpetrators and victims. It contradicts our nation's most cherished ideals. Any policies that permit torture and inhumane treatment are shocking and morally intolerable.Nothing less is at stake in the torture abuse crisis than the soul of our nation. What does it signify if torture is condemned in word but allowed in deed? Let America abolish torture now -- without exceptions. Sign the Petition Now!Take Action on KatrinaSign the Fairness and Opportunity Petition NowPetition for Fairness and Opportunity in the Gulf CoastWhat does the petition say? PETITION FOR FAIRNESS & OPPORTUNITY Initiated by the National Alliance to Restore Opportunity to the Gulf Coast & Displaced Persons I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel, and they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them. Amos 9:14b We, the undersigned people of faith, recognizing that we are all brothers and sisters and that our fates are linked, hereby endorse the Opportunity Platform of the National Alliance to Restore Opportunity to the Gulf Coast & Displaced Persons: 1. Rebuild the Gulf Region and ensure that the people of New Orleans never again face the devastation wrought by failed levees; 2. Ensure the right of displaced Gulf Coast residents to return to real opportunity by significantly improving upon the conditions that existed prior to Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, conditions that embodied the racial and economic inequities of the nation; 3. Provide opportunities and support for displaced Gulf Coast residents who cannot or will not return and support for the communities that have so generously received them; and 4. Bring federal resources to the region without taking funds away from programs that already serve people in need. Sign the petition now and add your own thoughts about Katrina. Take Action to Support Religious ToleranceSign Petition on Tolerance in Indian River School District A Jewish family living in southern Delaware was forced to move 2 hours away to flee the promotion of Christianity in their public schools. When the family raised the issue within the school district, their children became the subject of anti-Semitic slurs. We call on all people of faith, especially Christians, to support freedom of religion and tolerance in our public schools. Send a message to the Superintendent of the Indian River School District by Signing the Petition |
