What is Old Earth creationism?
'''Old Earth creationism''' is a term that covers many different types of [[creationism]]. #Some old Earth creationists believe [[God]] did each act of creation in a day but there were long breaks between each act of creation. #Other old Earth creationists believe days mentioned in [[Genesis]] are symbolic and really mean much longer time. #Other old Earth creationists believe God created life gradually over thousands of millions of years. #Other old Earth creationists believe God created life through [[theistic evolution]]. <ref>{{cite web|url=http://oldearth.org/theistic_evolution.htm|title=Theistic Evolution|first=Greg|last=Neyman|year=2011|accessdate=24 April 2012|publisher=Old Earth Ministries|quote=Theistic Evolution means that God used the process of evolution to create life on earth. }}</ref> Old Earth creationism typically agrees better with what [[scientist]]s believe about [[physics]], [[chemistry]], [[geology]] and the [[age of the Earth]], than [[Young Earth creationism]]. <ref>[http://ncseweb.org/creationism/general/creationevolution-continuum ''The Creation/Evolution Continuum''], [[Eugenie Scott]], [[National Center for Science Education|NCSE]] Reports, v. 19, n. 4, p. 16-17, 23-25, July/August, 1999.</ref> ==References== {{Reflist}} [[Category:Intelligent design]] [[Category:Creation myths]]
