Preferred term

creationism  

Definition(s)

  • Creationism is the belief that the universe was created by a divine entity, identified as God in Judeo-Christian theology. Creationist understandings of the formation of the earth fall along a diverse spectrum, but most creationists believe that the universe was created from nothing, that evolution cannot explain the development of life, that humans and apes have different ancestors, and that the Noachian flood covered the earth as documented in the Bible. [Source: Encyclopedia of Science and Technology Communication; Creationism]
