George McCready Price

George McCready Price was a Canadian scientist and Christian fundamentalist known for promoting young Earth creationism, the belief that the Earth is only thousands of years old based on a literal interpretation of the Bible. He challenged mainstream scientific views on evolution and geology, arguing that fossils and geological features could be explained by a global flood rather than long natural processes. Price's ideas influenced creationist thought in North America and laid groundwork for the modern creationism movement, emphasizing a literal reading of Scripture over conventional scientific consensus regarding Earth's history.
