On November 20, 2009, a group of Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, and Evangelical Christian leaders released the Manhattan Declaration, a document reaffirming and promising to defend fundamental truths in three areas:
1. The sanctity of human life;
2. The dignity of marriage as the conjugal union of husband and wife; and
3. The rights of conscience and religious liberty.
These basic truths are being threatened today on all sides. As you know, millions of innocent children are being killed by abortion; same-sex “marriage” has become common in several states; and there are very real threats to our ability to freely practice religion and follow our consciences.
Click here to read and understand the Declaration. Then consider adding your voice to the many who have already signed the Declaration. You will want to encourage others to sign as well. The goal is one million signatures. To date, over 432,000 people have signed, including hundreds of religious leaders. I have signed it myself.
The Manhattan Declaration is a statement of principles, not a political action plan. The Declaration’s aim is to alert secular leaders and other influencers in our culture that Christians of many different traditions are united in fundamental convictions regarding biblical morality and conscience.
