To become effective January 1, 2009
By the undersigned Citizens of the United States of America:
A Proclamation and Pledge of Non-Cooperation with, and Perpetual Resistance to, the enablers and practitioners of abortion and euthanasia
Whereas, more than three thousand innocent pre-born American children continue to be unlawfully and unconstitutionally killed every day, by cruel and unusual means, and that the evil practice of euthanasia against the elderly and the infirm grows daily, the undersigned citizens of these United States do hereby, in accordance with America’s founding principles, declare that:
“Every human being, without exception, unborn and born, from the very first moment of fertilization, the beginning of biological development, until natural death, existing within any State or Territory of the United States, in accordance with natural rights that preceded, and are preeminent to, the formation and existence of our government, are fully Persons, with the self-evident and attendant God-given, unalienable Right to Life that is possessed by all citizens of the United States; and shall henceforth, and forever, be protected in their Lives and in their Persons under the self-evident principles contained in the Organic Law of the United States: the provisions of the Declaration of Independence, the Northwest Ordinance, which binds all state governments to enforce the unalienable rights guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence, the Preamble to the United States Constitution, the specific provisions of the Fifth, the Eighth, the Ninth, and the Fourteenth Amendments to that document, and in the clear provisions of the constitutions of all fifty States in the Union.
“Commencing on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, we hereby call upon the Executive Branch of the United States Government, including the law enforcement and military authority thereof, upon the Congress of the United States, and upon all members of the Judiciary of the United States; as well as the executive, legislative, judicial, and law enforcement authorities of all member States and Territories of the United States; to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and to therefore recognize and actively protect the unalienable Right to Life of all such Persons, and to do no act or acts to repress such Persons, or to allow or effectuate the taking of any human life; the only exceptions being in the conduct of lawful and just war, justifiable homicide, or after trial and conviction by a jury on a capital offense as explicitly provided for in laws ratified by the elected representatives of the People or by the People themselves.
“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the President of the United States, and the chief executives of the several States and local jurisdictions, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to, by proclamation or executive order, declare the Humanity of the aforesaid Persons, from fertilization until natural death; and to henceforth use the power and authority of their offices in the perpetual task of protecting the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and to use all the power of their offices to enforce the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.
“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the Congress of the United States, the Legislatures of all the States, and the legislative bodies of all local, municipal and county governments, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to, by legislation, declare the Humanity of the aforesaid Persons, from fertilization until natural death; and to henceforth use all legislative power to resist those who would alienate the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.
“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon the Supreme Court of the United States, and all lesser Federal, State and local courts in the United States, to give due regard to the imperative duty created by their sworn oaths made before God, and so to immediately recognize the self-evident Humanity and the unalienable Right to Life of all aforesaid Persons, from the genesis of their physical being until natural death, and to henceforth use all judicial power to resist any who would attempt to alienate the God-given, unalienable Right to Life of said Persons, and the constitutional guarantee of their right to the equal protection of the laws.
“The undersigned citizens hereby call upon each and every elected or appointed official or officer of the United States, and of any of the States, to henceforth give no assistance of any kind to those who enable or effectuate abortion or euthanasia, and that they adhere faithfully to their sworn oath of office, made before God, to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States, whose central principle is the preservation and protection of innocent human life.
“We hereby solemnly pledge to our fellow citizens as a sacred obligation to withhold, from this day forward, any and all political or financial support from any candidate for public office, at any level of governance, who fails or refuses to adhere to the explicit provisions of this Proclamation. We also hereby pledge to withhold, from this day forward, support of any kind for the continued employment in government of any person or officer of the United States who fails in their sworn duty to protect innocent human life from its bodily genesis.
“The undersigned, by virtue of the power and duties vested in them as citizens, in time of rebellion against the natural law and nature’s God, as well as against the transcendent founding principle of our Republic, the unalienable Right to Life, as a fit and necessary measure for suppressing said rebellion, do, beginning on this first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, and in accordance with our purpose so to do publicly, proclaim our intent to peaceably, but boldly and resolutely, resist any individual, political body, or organization, that perpetuates or effectuates the practices of abortion or euthanasia. We do so in accord with the primary stated purpose of the United States Constitution: “To secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.”
“The undersigned hereby pledge continuous active opposition to the enablers and practitioners of abortion and euthanasia, and to those who enable or effectuate human embryonic scientific research that destroys human life at any point after its biological inception.
“This Proclamation will remain in full force until such time as all of its provisions have been carried into law and practice throughout the jurisdiction and territory of the United States, and into perpetuity.
“Upon this compact, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the United States Constitution, upon societal necessity, we invoke the considerate judgment of mankind, and the gracious favor of Almighty God.
“In witness whereof, the undersigned have hereunto set their hand, in their own names, for the sake of posterity.
“Done this first day of January, in the year of our Lord two thousand and nine, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and thirty third.”

"Let his faith and perseverance be our guide. We will never recognize the true value of our own lives until we affirm the value in the life of others, a value of which Malcolm Muggeridge says:. . . however low it flickers or fiercely burns, it is still a Divine flame which no man dare presume to put out, be his motives ever so humane and enlightened."
"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide. My Administration is dedicated to the preservation of America as a free land, and there is no cause more important for preserving that freedom than affirming the transcendent right to life of all human beings, the right without which no other rights have any meaning."
"Well, uh, you know, I think that whether you’re looking at it from a theological perspective or, uh, a scientific perspective, uh, answering that question with specificity, uh, you know, is, is, uh, above my pay grade.” - Sen. Barack Obama, on “When does a baby get human rights?”
I hope this is an antidote.
Hi Tom. This is the first I’ve heard about AIP. I think it may be an answer for Christian Conservatives. May God bless your work.
Too wordy.
It’s time for more than sound bites. That’s what the corrupt political establishment is hiding behind...the unwillingness of people to think beyond mere slogans.
I find the proclamation and pledge inspiring. Thanks, Tom. I’m printing out copies to distribute to my neighbors. It is with enthusiasm that I add my name to those who want to be considered one of the ‘undersigned citizens’.
Thanks Steve. God bless you.
Thanks, my friend!
I didn’t mean it should be reduced to three words. But there’s a lot of boilerplate that could come out. A friend of mine calls the disease “encyclicosis”—when people decide to write a manifesto, and fall in love with their own thorough, loving grasp of everything that can possibly be said—and say it.
There’s a time to say it all, and this is one.
You want the sound bites?
God forbids murder.
The God-given right to life is unalienable.
The Constitution’s stated purpose is to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves AND OUR POSTERITY.
Every officer of the United States swears to uphold and defend that document and its purpose.
Christians aren’t doing their job by holding them to it.
Solve that and you’re most of the way to stopping the holocaust.
Fail to do it and the only thing that’s going to stop it is the judgment of God on this country.
“I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever.” - Thomas Jefferson.
woohoo! signed it and passed it on!!
PING! Could you hit the ping list please? Thanks, you guys!
Hey, thought you might be interested in this!
The wicked man also stated on the Illinois Senate floor that to grant Constitutional human rights to newly born alive infants would endanger Roe v Wade! So, he wants US to approve of infanticide in order to prevent erosion to Roe v Wade. Barack Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, aka Barry Dunham, aka Barry Obama is a very wicked man. This does not bode well for a once great Republic.
