Manhattan Declaration part 2

The Manhattan Declaration is a document that "addresses the sanctity of life" or opposition of abortion and "traditional marriage" or opposition of same-sex marriage. Since it's release, the document has received much opposition. The Examiner even wrote an article based on the negativity that the document has received. Apparently, Mark Kern, another writer from the Examiner did not agree with that opposition that the document received. Kern believes that the Manhattan Declaration is simply a document that defends the traditions of American life and liberty. Furthermore, he believes that faith-based organizations provide a safety net for politics in this country. It is interesting to see the differences from both sides as two very different articles were released by the same news outlet, illustrating the same differences seen in America today.
