Creationism
Creationism refers to the belief that the universe and everything in it were specially created by God through magic , rather than naturalistic means. Creationism implicitly relies on the claim that there is a "purpose" to all creation known only to the creator. To some extent, Creationists believe that this purpose is revealed in scripture or holy writings. However, intelligent design is increasingly being touted as an additional means of detecting "design," and therefore purpose, in nature. As no person has made direct empirical observation of the results of a supernatural creator's work, we are incapable of discerning what was specially created and what was not. Design becomes indistinguishable from nature, and Intelligent design indistinguishable from guessing.
Day-age creationism
Day-age creationism , a type of old Earth creationism , is an interpretation of the creation accounts in Genesis . It holds that the six days referred to in the Genesis account of creation are not ordinary 24-hour days, but are much longer periods (of thousands or millions of years). The Genesis account is then reconciled with the age of the Earth . Proponents of the day-age theory can be found among both theistic evolutionists , who accept the scientific consensus on evolution , and progressive creationists , who reject it. The theories are said to be built on the understanding that the Hebrew word yom is used to refer to a time period, with a beginning and an end and not necessarily that of a 24-hour day. The differences between the young Earth interpretation of Genesis and modern scientific theories such as Big Bang , abiogenesis , and common descent are significant.
Famous Creationists
Creationism is, pardon the expression, creating quite a stir this election. With 66 percent of the US believing that the world is less than 10,000 years old , and 16 percent of biology teachers being creationists, a vice presidential candidate who's been linked to the c-word, and even Obama rolling out faith-based merchandise , the issue of belief is big. One UK preacher says of the growth , "Science does not have to be taught in conflict with faith or religion. I believe the current debate over creationism versus evolution is beginning to draw more and people over to our side of the argument . . . evolution is a world-view that leads to futility.

What were the initial Christian responses to Darwin?
In a Nutshell Even before Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859, many Christians had already accepted an old Earth. One of the first supporters of evolutionary science in America—Harvard biologist Asa Gray—was a devout Christian. Conservative theologian B. B.
Creationism's False Weaknesses
"Evolution doesn't explain the origin of life" [non-issue] Evolution does not deal with the origin of life. The anti-evolutionists attempt to pair these separate things because in their view the origin of life and the diversity of life resulted from a single creation event. Evolution only deals with how life changes over time, once life already exists. Anti-evolutionist literature does not make this clarification.
Kreationismus
Spielarten des Kreationismus Kreationisten lehnen die Kosmologie (Urknall-Theorie), den Darwinismus und die Evolutionstheorie ab, denn sie sind überzeugt, dass das Leben auf der Erde nicht zufällig, sondern durch einen Schöpfungsakt entstand ("Creation Science"; Kreationsimus, von lateinisch creare = erschaffen). Während man in der Evolutionstheorie davon ausgeht, dass sich das Leben unaufhörlich verändert, nehmen die Fundamentalisten unter den Kreationisten die Bibel wörtlich und glauben, Gott habe die Erde und das Leben darauf in sechs aufeinanderfolgenden Tagen in endgültiger Form erschaffen (Genesis).The history of creationism relates to the history of thought based on the premise that the natural universe had a beginning, and came into being supernaturally . The term creationism in its broad sense covers a wide range of views and interpretations, and was not in common use before the late 19th century. Throughout recorded history, many people have viewed the universe as a created entity . Many ancient historical accounts from around the world refer to or imply a creation of the earth and universe. Although specific historical understandings of creationism have used varying degrees of empirical , spiritual and/or philosophical investigations, they are all based on the view that the universe was created. The most influential force on the history of creationism has been the Genesis creation narrative , which was accepted as a historical account until the advent of modern science .
History of creationism
First published Sat Aug 30, 2003; substantive revision Mon Oct 29, 2007 At a broad level, a Creationist is someone who believes in a god who is absolute creator of heaven and earth, out of nothing, by an act of free will. Such a deity is generally thought to be constantly involved (‘immanent’) in the creation, ready to intervene as necessary, and without whose constant concern the creation would cease or disappear. Christians, Jews, and Muslims are all Creationists in this sense. Generally they are known as ‘theists,’ distinguishing them from ‘deists,’ that is people who believe that there is a designer who might or might not have created the material on which he (or she or it) is working and who does not interfere once the designing act is finishing.
Creationism
by Eugenie C. Scott Many — if not most — Americans think of the creation and evolution controversy as a dichotomy with "creationists" on one side, and "evolutionists" on the other. This assumption all too often leads to the unfortunate conclusion that because creationists are believers in God, that evolutionists must be atheists. The true situation is much more complicated: creationism comes in many forms, and not all of them reject evolution. It is highly desirable to move people away from this inaccurate dichotomy.

Every religion in the world has its own version of the origins of life and matter. In Abrahamic religions, including Christianity, Judaism and Islam, these explanations rest on the premise that God created the universe and everything in it. This is the basic tenet of creationism in the West. In the United States, the public debate between Christian creationism and evolution , once considered dead in the wake of the Scopes Monkey trial, is back on its feet.Beliefs of the U.S. public about evolution and creation
