Manhattan Declaration – Mike Huckabee with Chuck Colson

Date December 9, 2009

Mike Huckabee and Chuck Colson discuss the Manhattan Declaration

To my utter amazement, at around 2 minutes 28 seconds into the video, Huckabee begins to compare the Manhattan Declaration to Martin Luther’s 95 Thesis, placing the two on equal footing with regards to their significance. That is just insane. There is no comparison in my mind. One document, the 95 Thesis, kick started the Reformation, the other, the Manhattan Declaration, will most likely be a footnote in history.

Don’t get me wrong, social justice, the sanctity of life and marriage, etc. all worthy issues for Christians to focus on. It’s the ecumenical nature of the Manhattan Declaration that has me concerned. Read this.
