Scientific Creationism

Scientific Creationism is an approach that seeks to interpret scientific evidence—such as geological and biological data—in a way that supports the literal interpretation of the biblical account of creation. Advocates argue that the universe, Earth, and life were created by divine intervention over a relatively short timescale, typically hundreds0 to thousands of years, rather than through natural processes like evolution and millions of years of geological change. It aims to harmonize religious beliefs with scientific observations, but mainstream scientists generally regard it as a form of creationism rather than a scientific discipline, due to its reliance on specific scriptural interpretations.
