The Manhattan Declaration was drafted and released in 2009. It is a declaration of Christian faith and responsibility and talks extensively about life, marriage and religious liberty.
Here is the actual pledge:
We are Christians who have joined together across historic lines of ecclesial differences to affirm our right—and, more importantly, to embrace our obligation—to speak and act in defense of these truths. We pledge to each other, and to our fellow believers, that no power on earth, be it cultural or political, will intimidate us into silence or acquiescence. It is our duty to proclaim the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in its fullness, both in season and out of season. May God help us not to fail in that duty.
This is not a line in the sand. It is a line etched in the granite of Mount Sinai. I signed it two years ago, but have neglected to do my part in spreading the word. Tonight I will try to rectify that.
Please read and prayerfully sign the pledge at http://www.manhattandeclaration.org/the-declaration/read.aspx . Then please pass it along to your Christian friends.

“It is absurd for the Evolutionist to complain that it is unthinkable for an admittedly unthinkable God to make
everything out of nothing, and then pretend that it is more thinkable that nothing should turn itself into everything.”
