A little over a year ago I did a post on the Manhattan Declaration (and signed it myself). I hadn't given the Declaration much thought over the course of the past very busy twelve months until I saw this blog post by Matthew Warner over at National Catholic Register. In a nutshell it says that Apple declared the Manhattan Declaration, which reaffirms Christian teachings like the importance of marriage and the rights of the unborn, to be offensive to many people and pulled the application, which is for the iPhone and iPad off the apps store.
Basically what it comes down to is whether stating Christian teachings as truth has become hate speech.
There is a petition you can sign asking Apple to reinstate the application (I signed that petition too, although I would be very surprised if Apple budged on this one). And if your signing that petition and you haven't already done so you can click here and sign the Manhattan Declaration too!
