From PSCF June 2007 Vol. 59 No. 2 p. 143-146

"The ASA does not take a position on issues when there is honest
disagreement among Christians provided there is adherence to our statement
of faith and to integrity in science. Accordingly, the ASA neither endorses
nor opposes young-earth creationism which recognizes the possibility of a
recent creation with appearance of age or which acknowledges the unresolved
discrepancy between scientific data and a young-earth position. However,
claims that scientific data affirm a young earth do not meet the criterion
of integrity in science. Any portrayal of the RATE project as confirming
scientific support for a young earth contradicts the RATE project's own
report. The ASA can and does oppose such deception."
