Creationism

Creationism is the belief that the universe and living organisms originated from specific acts of creation, usually attributed to a divine being, rather than through evolutionary processes. Originating mainly from Judeo-Christian traditions, it contrasts with scientific explanations like the Big Bang and natural selection. Creationists often interpret religious texts literally, suggesting that life was created in its current forms rather than through gradual evolution. This perspective raises debates about science, religion, and education, particularly regarding the teaching of evolution in schools.
