Freedom Declaration for Peace for an Increasingly Divided World

Background:
The Freedom Declaration for Peace begins with the words:

“When you strip away all that divides us — class, race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nationality, ideology and dogma — we are left with the essence of what it means to be human through our desire for freedom, our yearning for peace, and our dream of prosperity for all.”

This vision aligns with the need to reconcile secular and sacred perspectives, moving beyond dogmatism and exclusion. It opens a pathway for church and state — and for all communities of conscience — to work together for peace, justice, and mutual prosperity.

Question for Feedback:

The Freedom Declaration for Peace offers a pathway that reconciles the secular and the sacred for a new era of peace, inclusivity, and mutual prosperity? 

Agree — Faith and society should work together to affirm human dignity and peace.
Disagree — The secular and the sacred should remain separate, or cannot be reconciled.

About PByT Surveys & Open Democracy

The PByT surveys represent a rolling snapshot of global sentiment from real people whose identity has been verified. The results can be analyzed in a variety of ways to get a better understanding of key issues utilizing Bayesian statistics - a mathematical concept that updates beliefs in light of new data or evidence.

As a result, these surveys have the potential to be the most definitive resources on some of the most critically important issues of modern times and serve as the basis for the idea of "open democracy."

Have your say and help shape the interconnected world of tomorrow based on trust, mutual-aid and cooperation.
