It would indeed.
And it takes only a minute or two to sign.

As opposed to the "religious left"? I'm tired of these sanctimonious snot-nose elites labels who pretend that they are sooooo loving; all the while supporting non-Christian actions and the sins of the world. They are tares in the church that needs to be exposed. Can they find anything wrong with the statement? If they want to call it the resurrection of the "religious right", I'd say bring it on.
It conjures up the WWII term: "The Manhattan Project."
I hope it reaches 200 million.
I always say wait until you see that more that 50% jump on something, then I will join up - knowing it is safe and all. s/
"Colson said that couldn't be further from the truth."
There are some pernicious presuppositions in both the statement and the retort. To a leftist, the term 'religious right' is simply a convenient political smear to paint with a broad brush mere Christians (those who believe Scripture, especially the words of Jesus Christ.) The term is a misnomer; either you are religious (in the good sense, meaning spiritual - Christian) or you are secular.
Colson has been drifting left into ecumenism for some time. He denounces the accusation without knowing what it means (see above.)
213809 signatures in support ...and growing!
According to my calculations, the rate is about 20 signatures per minute, 1100 per hour, or about 26,000 per day. We need to increase the rate to get one MILLION by Christmas. Hopefully as the number grows people will get more excited and make it go faster.
But it's great anyway.... because every signature must represent at least 10 people at this point. That means those signatures really represent over 2 MILLION already... I'm guessing here. You know many may not know about it yet, busy, etc etc etc..
214,100 when I signed!
214,376 and growing
Well, we ARE religious, and we ARE right...
