Old Earth creationism
(Redirected from 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. [1] Old Earth creationism typically agrees better with what scientists believe about physics, chemistry, geology and the age of the Earth, than Young Earth creationism. [2]
