===Universal creationism=== | |||
Universal creationism is a fundamental tenet of the major monotheistic religions. Human creationism is also a tenet expressed or implied. It is the doctrine or belief that the universe was created by God out of no pre-existent entity. It is thus opposed to all forms of [[pantheism]]. | |||
===Biological creationism=== | |||
Some form of biological creationism with the Creator as identified as God has traditionally been believed among adherents of the major monotheistic religions. Because of the acceptance of [[evolutionism]] among many intellectuals, biological creationism has lost influence. However, in recent decades a movement has arisen to defend creationism on theological, philosophical, and scientific grounds. This is commonly called creationism or creation apologetics. | |||
It is the doctrine or belief that the various species or kinds of living beings were created and so are not the product of a naturalistic process. The creator is usually identified as God, the creator of the universe. It is thus opposed to [[evolutionism]]. | |||
===Human creationism=== | |||
