As reference to this Declaration has surfaced again, perhaps due to the article from
Rabbi Barry Kornblau which we posted yesterday, see here:https://www.algemeiner.com/2011/12/05/100-orthodox-rabbis-issue-same-sex-marriage-declaration/

As one who signed this document, I wish to point out that there was also another document that reflected the opinion of Orthodox Rabbis -- thereby reflecting, in my opinion, the true complexity of this issue and its demand for true Torah analysis. In this regard, I would like to point out, that I was the only Rabbi that actually signed both documents showing, again in my opinion, the simple fact that as different elements within the Torah world stress different aspects of this issue, there is no real conflict between the perspectives. Further on this, please see https://forward.com/news/147684/orthodox-rabbis-oppose-gay-marriage/ the Forward article that identified me as the only Rabbi to sign both documents.
