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’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?
