YOUNG ADULT BILL OF RIGHTS

It's time for us to be heard in this Generation of Crisis. It's time we stand up for what we believe and declare it for all. This is our proclamation. And these are our rights as a generation of appliers’, destined to create an irrefutable change. We stand as one, and with this Bill of Rights, we will ignite a revolution.

THE YOUNG ADULT BILL OF RIGHTS

We, a new generation of young adult Americans, in order to protect the heritage of our forefathers and secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and generations to come, do affirm and pledge this declaration:

When character and morality are uncommon qualities,
When corporations and marketers seek to profit from our destruction,
When pop culture icons do not represent our values,
When Judeo-Christian beliefs are labeled as intolerant,
When activists seek to remove God from our schools,
When truth is deemed relative and unknowable,

It is necessary for us, the merging generation of young
Americans, to stand for what is right and reclaim the values
that have made our nation great. We call our nation to a higher
standard, a lifestyle based

not on convenience, but on character,
not on what is easy, but on what is excellent,
not on what feels good, but on what is good,
not on popularity, but on principle,
not on what is tempting, but on what is true.

We, as Young Adult Americans, assert our right to determine our future and the future of our great nation. We hold these truths as our God-given rights, and we embrace them with our hearts and our lives:

We recognize that God, our Creator, is the source of all truth.
We will live with honor, always striving to do the right thing, even when it is unpopular.
We will be honest and truthful in matters large and small, regardless of the consequences.
We will take responsibility for our actions, and not point to governments, schools, celebrities, parents, or friends to justify our wrong decisions. We recognize that we are personally responsible for our mistakes.
We will pursue purity throughout our lives. We will not be seduced by a fabricated idea of sex and love. We will save our bodies and hearts for our future spouses, and once married we commit to pursue faithful and enduring relationships.
We will see through the lies of drugs and alcohol and refuse to let any chemical influence our thinking or destroy our lives.
We will respect the authorities placed in our lives, even though some may not live as honorably as they should. We will honor our parents, teachers, and other leaders.
We will reach out with compassion to the hurting and less fortunate, both in our society and around the world. We refuse to be absorbed with our own comforts and desires.

We recognize the value of each life, whether born or unborn, and we seek to protect those who are unable to protect themselves. We will do our best to represent and communicate our Creator to our peers, leaders, and society as a whole. We will work to see that every person has the opportunity to see and hear about the true nature of our God.

In signing, we commit to pursue a life that exemplifies these standards. We refuse to sit idly by and witness the destruction of our generation. With God's help, we envision a bright and prosperous future for the nation we love.

I hereby sign the Young Adult Bill of Rights and seal it with my name as a contract to my Lord Jesus Christ , who is my Audience. I will remain personally responsible of all of my personal choices and decisions, quickly acknowledging and changing my Mind about my personal failures and weakness.
