Creation Letter Project
Creation Letter Project is a non-profit, Christian ministry outreach of Defending Genesis ministries, authored and founded in December 2008 by author and apologist Tony Breeden. Dedicated to the promotion of Biblical Young Earth Creationism and Catastrophism, the Creation Letter Project is a Biblical Creationist response to Michael Zimmerman’s pro-evolution Clergy Letter. Visitors can sign the Creation Letter affirming the literal, historical truth of God’s revealed Word and find information about how to celebrate a Creation Sunday instead of Zimmerman’s proposed Evolution Sundays.
Text of the Creation Letter
“Observable, testable, repeatable science has brought us many benefits and innovations. The founders of modern science were Creationists, “thinking God’s thoughts after Him.” Most of the disciplines within science were founded before Darwin or by scientists who actually rejected his theory. The Scientific Method itself is based on the idea that an orderly creation can be rationally understood because it was designed by an Intelligent Creator. Creationists today continue to practice normal, experimental science without need of evolution.
Evolution is not observable, testable, repeatable science. It’s a belief about the past, an atheist Just-So Story seeking to displace the divinely revealed Creation record. It’s based on the flaw of naturalism, which begs that all problems must have a natural explanation, so God isn’t needed. This stands directly at odds with the Biblical claim that God’s existence, eternal power and Godhead are self-evident in His Creation, for it excludes an Intelligent Creator from all consideration. Faulty assumptions lead to faulty conclusions! Sadly, statistics demonstrate that children taught godless evolution as scientific truth reject religious truth wholesale! It’s time to judge this tree by its fruit!
The Bible stands as the inerrant, revealed Word of God. As such, the conclusions and speculations of fallible, finite men should be weighed in light of the revelation of an infallible, infinite God – not the other way ’round. Let God be true and every man a liar!
Some claim to take the Bible seriously but actually hold man’s word as their true authority, so long as it calls itself science; where it disputes the Genesis record, they denigrate the Word of God to mere Bible stories in the tradition of Aesop’s fables. After swallowing the camel of the Resurrection and supernatural miracles, they strain at the gnat of a historical Creation week.
We do not follow cleverly devised fables. While the Bible is NOT a science textbook, the Word of God is true and accurate in all it records. Jesus affirmed the truth and authority of God’s Word, mentioning Creation, Adam and Eve, Abel, Noah and Jonah as matters of fact. Though some object that religious truth is of a different order from scientific truth, Jesus refuted this false dichotomy when He asked Nicodemus, “If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?” [John 3:12] The very reason Jesus literally died and rose again is a world cursed by the literal Fall of a literal Adam!
We the undersigned affirm the truth of a Biblical, literal 6-day Creation and strongly discourage any Bible-believing Christian from endorsing or celebrating an Evolution Sunday. Evolution is a lie which undermines both Biblical authority and the foundational basis of the Gospel. We urge churches to send a clear message of the enduring authority of God’s Word by celebrating a Creation Sunday instead of the Clergy Letter Project’s proposed Evolution Sunday. We urge school board members to fight for the integrity of our science curriculum by insisting that evolution’s mortal flaws be published. We ask that science remain science, so that truth may remain truth.”

Objectives
The Creation Letter Project has three specific objectives:
- To demonstrate that the 13,000 pro-evolution Clergy Letter Project signatures do not reflect the majority opinion of Christianity and that any interpretation of Scripture which attempts to harmonize millions of years of microbes-to-man evolution only ends up compromising the authority of Scripture and the foundational basis of the Gospel, and therefore undermining Christianity.
- To encourage Christians, especially ministers, to sign the Creation Letter as a means of demonstrating that most Christians do read Genesis literally, contrary to the claim of the Clergy Letter.
- To promote the celebration of a Creation Sunday instead of an Evolution Sunday, as proposed by the pro-evolution Clergy Letter Project, and to advertise local churches that will be celebrating a Creation Sunday at CreationSundays.com.
Creation Sunday
Since 2006, the pro-evolution Clergy Letter Project has successfully promoted the celebration of an Evolution Sunday in churches throughout the world. They also have a list of 13,000 ministers who affirm that evolution is true and that the Genesis record is a teaching myth like Aesop’s Fables. The Clergy Letter Project is often cast in the faces of Creationists to insinuate that we are merely a fringe element of Christianity, because there has not yet been an answer to their challenge. Our silence is used as an admission of our alleged irrelevance.
It is disgusting that this modern-day Goliath gets to mock the people of God, flaunting the compromise of some of our ministers as if it represented the majority opinion, with no answer in kind.
One of the ways we can re-affirm the doctrines of Biblical Creation and Catastrophism and answer the mockery of Evolution Sunday is by celebrating a Creation Sunday instead.
In late 2010, DefendingGenesis.org created an official Creation Sunday website to list advertised Creation Sunday services taking place on Creation Sunday, the Sunday nearest Charles Darwin's birthday (Feb 12th) - the same day designated as Evolution Sunday by atheist Dr. Michael Zimmerman.. Check it out to attend or advertise a Creation Sunday celebration taking place near you!
Creation Sunday also has a Facebook Cause at [http://facebook.com/creationsunday].
