Evangelical coalition favors creation of Palestinian state: Ron Sider leads coalition

A coalition of evangelical leaders is attempting to “correct a serious misperception” that all evangelicals oppose establishing a Palestinian state.

Led by Ron Sider, a professor at American Baptist–affiliated Palmer Theological Seminary in Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, and head of Evangelicals for Social Action, the coalition sent a letter to President Bush expressing support for a proposed two-state solution.
