The following went out on IWG letterhead listing 2 congregations, 5 religious
organizations and 35 clergy from 12 faiths and denominations. If you are in
the general Philadelphia area and represent a congregation or religious
organization or are clergy, let us know if you want to be added - all faiths
are welcome. We will also be happy to help start similar organizations in
other areas.  Visit the web page at http://www.libertynet.org/~iwg/.

Dear Editors:

Gary Bauer has no business speaking for the world's
great religions, a phrase which he only rarely defines,
and then with great inconsistency.  As the coordinators
of a rapidly growing group with ordained representation
from twelve faiths and denominations we can assure you
that there is no religious consensus on the morality of
homosexuality.


					Sincerely,
		    Barbara Purdom                  Christopher Purdom
