From: Interfaith Working Group Subject: IWG Milwaukee Sentinel Letter Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 22:52:07 -0400 (EDT) The following went out on IWG letterhead listing 10 congregations and religious organizations and 46 clergy from 14 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. September 10, 1997 Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Box 371 Milwaukee,WI 53201-0371 Dear Editors: Adrian F. Cerny (letter, September 10) cannot see the difference between a moral system which emphasizes justice and equality and no moral system at all. Cerny blames this perceived lack of morals on the development of a multicultural society. The United States has always been a diverse country. Multiculturalism is merely a recognition of our diversity. That recognition has made it more obvious to many people that loving our neighbors as ourselves and how we treat the stranger or the least among us is more important than, and can sometimes conflict with, the regulation of personal relationships. Sincerely, Barbara Purdom Christopher Purdom Interfaith Working Group Coordinators -- Interfaith Working Group Religious organizations, congregations iwg@libertynet.org and clergy supporting gay rights, http://www.libertynet.org/~iwg/ reproductive freedom, and the 215-235-3050 separation of church and state.
