The Manhattan Declaration
A Call of Christian Conscience
Christians, when they have lived up to the highest ideals of their faith, have defended the weak and vulnerable and
worked tirelessly to protect and strengthen vital institutions of civil society, beginning with the family.
It was in this tradition that a group of prominent Christian clergy, ministry leaders, and scholars released the Manhattan
Declaration on November 20, 20099 at a press conference in Washington, DC.
The 4,700-word declaration speaks in defense of the sanctity of life, traditional marriage, and religious liberty.
It issues a clarion call to Christians to adhere firmly to their convictions in these three areas.
