member of the award-winning staff of Leadership, Christianity Today's
professional journal for church leaders. He is the editor of seven books,
including Movie-Based Illustrations for Preaching & Teaching, which sparked
his ongoing love affair with film and his weekly WND column, "Popcorn and
a (world)view."More ↓
Since WND first reported that residents in the state of
Louisiana were petitioning to secede from the U.S., residents in over 20 more
states have filed requests with the White House to peaceably break from the
union.
Furthermore, the Louisiana petition has topped 14,000
signatures, more than halfway to the threshold needed after which the White
House has pledged to respond.
And for Texas, one of the new states to join the fray, the
signature count now tops 25,000.
The White House’s We the People website explains that once a
petition reaches 25,000 signatures, it will be placed on a queue for response
from the administration. The website also maintains a page for previous
petitions that have received a White House response.
Joining Louisiana now are Arizona, Oklahoma, Arkansas, South
Carolina, Georgia, Missouri, Tennessee, Michigan, New York, Colorado, Oregon,
New Jersey, North Dakota, Montana, Indiana, Mississippi, Kentucky, Florida,
North Carolina, Alabama and Texas.
The Louisiana petition, which has served as a pattern
for  many of the new states, reads as
follows: “We petition the Obama administration to: Peacefully grant the State
of Louisiana to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own
NEW government.”
It continues, “As the Founding Fathers of the United States
of America made clear in the Declaration of Independence in 1776: ‘When in the
Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the
political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the
powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature
and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind
requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the
separation.’”
 The petition concludes with a further quote from the
Declaration of Independence: “‘Governments are instituted among Men, deriving
their just powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any Form of
Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to
alter or abolish it, and institute new Government.’”
