What We Believe...
In today's culture it is
necessary to clearly
define what one believes
- even if they claim to be
a biblical creationist.
CSA would like to state
that we are Young Earth
Creationists; meaning we
believe in a literal
interpretation of Genesis,
which says that God created the universe in six days approximately 6,000 years ago. In some circles it is
fashionable to stretch the meaning of these verses to more closely mirror evolutionary dogmas by
replacing the "days" in Genesis with long ages. We believe this is a great mistake, as science always
changes, but the Bible remains the same. In the words of the late Dr. Charles Mangione, we must ask
"Who is leading whom? Is the church leading the world or is the world leading the church?" With full
assurance in the veracity of the Word of God, we unabashedly state that we believe that science will
eventually catch up to Scripture, which we profess to be the inerrant Word of God.

About the Presentations...
| The presentations are geared to challenging the evolutionary theories being taught in classrooms across America. They are comprised of well organized materials including simple manipulatives and visuals that encourage critical thinking skills. Empirical evidence that supports creationism and exposes many Darwinian-inspired hoaxes are interactively presented. The free presentations are designed to answer the most common questions Christians have concerning the evolution/creation controversy. |
What You Can Do...
| You can partner with us in bringing this information to your group. The free presentations are two hours long and can be done in one session, as a one-hour presentation over a two-week period, or can be modified to fit your needs. All that is required is a projector, the facility, and interested listeners. We will do the rest. |
Creation Science Alive
| Our Mission: Creation Science Alive is dedicated to teaching the scientific truths that support the creation account as detailed in the Bible. For more information, contact Nick at creationfacts@aol.com. or RoseAnn at ras50@optonline.net |

What’s the Big Deal About Teaching Creationism?
By RoseAnn Salanitri
Have you ever asked yourself why our culture seems to be
disintegrating all around us? Why the moral standards we all seem to
have had in common a few decades ago seem to have blown away with
the wind? The answer may lie in the public classrooms around the
world where evolution is being taught as empirical science. Fair
warning – this is going to be rough reading.
We are told in Romans 1:19-21 that what we know about God is evident.
Verse 20 says: “For since the creation of the world His invisible
attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen,
being understood through what has been made (emphasis mine), so
that they are without excuse.” Yes, this verse does directly apply to our
belief about origins. The passage goes on to say that people who
choose not to believe in Biblical Creationism do not honor God and they
worship the creature rather than the Creator (verse 25). Because of
these beliefs, God turns these people over to the lusts of their hearts
(verse 24). This turning over leads to a path paved with immorality. Is it
any wonder that morality has declined as Darwinism has increased?
The Bible says in Psalms 11:3: “When the foundations are being
destroyed, what can the righteous do?” In the 21st century, the Theory
of Evolution has unleashed a catastrophic blow to the very foundation
of Christianity – the Word of God. The reality of how this “theory” plays
out is that on Sunday mornings churches around the world teach that
the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, and that it is true in every chapter
and every verse – beginning with Genesis 1:1. Then on Monday
mornings classrooms around the world teach that everything evolved
by natural causes, without any supernatural intervention (translation:
NO GOD). The classrooms play one-upmanship in that they claim to have
the real documented facts – the truth. They present artistic charts on
the evolution of man from a hunched over ape to an upright walking Cro
Magnon. Unknowingly, teachers rely on their textbooks that contain
well-documented errors and hoaxes- some over a 100-years-old!
Trusting students are lead to conclude that the fossil record supports
these charts and their claims. On the other hand, the churches also
claim to teach the truth, but with rare exception, do not present
authoritative-looking or well-informed arguments to support their
claims. They have not followed the Apostle Paul’s commitment of
“…destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the
knowledge of God...” 2 Cor. 10:5. The sad truth is that the growing body
of empirical evidence actually supports the Genesis account, but this
truth is not reaching the Body of Christ sitting in the pews across
America and the rest of the world. So, what is the student supposed to
think? Barna Research conducted a poll that revealed that 70% of
students entering high school and college claiming to be Christians
plan to leave the church when they graduate directly due to teachings
about evolution. Their statistic tells us what the students think.
Alas, there is nothing new under the sun.
The Greeks were the first to believe in evolution, but it was Charles
Darwin that gave the theory a boost in the mid-1800s. While this theory
has been gaining substantial ground over the past decades, it has also
influenced the thinking of many historical figures as well. The most
notable would be Carl Marx, Joseph Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, and Adolph
Hitler. These men were vocal supporters of evolution and
consequently felt perfectly free to choose what was right in their own
eyes. Unfortunately, what was right in their own eyes led to shocking
levels of tyranny and human depravity. Hitler justified his treatment of
Jews and Blacks as sub humans worthy of genocide because he
believed they were lower on the evolutionary chain. At the Olympics he
complained that his finely trained (defeated) athletes were made to
compete against apes!
The question now is, should their behavior really surprise us? The
answer is a bold and astounding NO! Marx, Stalin, Mao, and Hitler gave
us a glimpse of what life looks like without God and His moral code.
They gave us a glimpse of how man chooses what he believes to be
right in his own eyes when God is eliminated from his thought process.
Proverbs 16:25 states, “There is a way that seems right to man, but in
the end it leads to death.” The history of the 20th century certainly
seems to support this verse: genocide, abortion, homosexual lifestyles
leading to AIDS, to name a few advocated rights that lead to death. We
need to ask ourselves, is this what life without God looks like? To
answer that question for yourself, read Romans 1:28-32.
In today’s Darwinian culture, those of us believing in Biblical
Creationism are scorned and laughed at as if we were some medieval
illiterate clinging to old wives tales and ill-contrived fables. The good
news is that strong and faithful men and women are standing up and
sharing facts that support Genesis, understanding that: if we believe in
evolution, it is illogical to believe in creationism; if we don’t believe in
creationism, then why should we believe anything else in the Bible; if
we don’t believe the Bible, why should we believe God; if we don’t
believe in God, why should we employ His moral codes; and if we don’t
employ His moral codes, then we are free to decide for ourselves what
is right and what is wrong – and deciding for ourselves is what we have
been doing. Deciding for ourselves has filled our prisons, killed our
unborn, and given rise to one of the deadliest diseases mankind has
ever known. I believe evolution is one of the greatest and most
successful lies since the serpent told Eve ‘You can be like God.’ Make
no mistake about it, evolution is an assault on the very foundation of
Biblical Creationism; therefore, it is an assault on the Bible.
Let me leave you with some questions that demand an answer. Can
Christianity survive in a world where the Bible is nothing more than a
pleasant fable? Will there be faith on the earth when the Son of Man
returns? You see, you can’t really have it both ways, if evolution is true,
then the Bible is just a myth, or a crutch for the weak-minded – as many
evolutionists claim. The challenges of the 21st century demand that you
decide on which side you stand. Those who keep silent have made
their decision. Christ says that a kingdom divided against itself cannot
stand, He also says that those who do not stand with Him stand against
Him, Matthew 12:25, 30. Where do you stand? What will Christ find you
doing when He returns?
