"Creationism is a belief system that holds that the universe, Earth, and all living things were created by a supernatural entity, typically a deity, in their present form. Creationism is often associated with a literal interpretation of religious texts, such as the Bible, which describe the creation of the universe and life.
Different forms of creationism exist, but in general, they reject the scientific theory of evolution and propose that the natural world can only be explained by the direct action of a divine creator. Some proponents of creationism believe in a young Earth theory, which suggests that the Earth and the universe were created a few thousand years ago, and that the geological and biological evidence of an ancient Earth is the result of a catastrophic event, such as a global flood.
Creationism has been controversial in scientific and educational communities, as it is not supported by scientific evidence, and it is considered by many to be a religious belief rather than a scientific theory. The teaching of creationism in public schools has been challenged in court, with many rulings determining that it is unconstitutional to teach it as a scientific theory in science classes, as it violates the principle of the separation of church and state." -ChatGPT
