An evangelical who won't sign

The evangelical manifesto, that is.

US Southern Baptist Richard Land talks about it here.

The more I've gone back to reading it myself, the more questions about meaning are opened up, and Richard offers a good collection of them. The meaning of 'evangelical' in the document is watery, and that's a pretty basic problem.

Good quote:

As I grow more mature in years I am more and more aware of just how wise Billy Graham’s policy is of never signing statements you haven’t written yourself.
