"Biblical Creationism"

Biblical Creationism is a belief system that interprets the origin of the Earth and life as described in the Bible, particularly the book of Genesis. Adherents maintain that God created the universe, Earth, and all living beings in a series of specific acts over six days, roughly 6,000 to 10,000 years ago. This perspective often contrasts with scientific explanations like evolution and the Big Bang theory, leading to debates about faith, science, and education. Proponents advocate for a literal understanding of scripture, viewing it as a foundational historical account of creation.
