Here is the final statement published at the recent Global Anglican Future Conference in Jerusalem (and a video of the "Jerusalem Declaration" being read by Archbishop Henry Luke Orombi).

And some responses:

• Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury;
• N. T. Wright, Bishop of Durham;
• Robert Forsyth, Bishop of South Sydney;
• Mark Thompson, President of Anglican Church League of Sydney Diocese; and
• Dave Walker, cartoonist.
