Creation in secular journal (cosmology)

Creationist ideas on astronomy and cosmology have been published in many secular journals for peer-review, in addition to creationist journals like CRSQ and the Journal of Creation.

A creationist cosmology and/or physics paper is defined in this list as a paper relating to cosmology and/or physics from a young-earth perspective and is written by a creationist. It should be noted that just because a paper does not mention God, creationism, or a young earth does not mean it doesn't come from that perspective. For example, Dr. Hartnett had done much work on a young universe model of the universe using cosmological relativity. Thus any paper he wrote about the theory of cosmological relativity counts as a creationist paper. For those papers are a means of justifying his theory and provide the framework for later work in creationist journals.

It should be noted that, for the sake of completeness, several old-earth papers from a theistic view point will appear in this list. These papers are not creationist per se, but leaving them out would greatly deter the big picture of the idea of deity being applied to cosmology and physics. In this case, a * will appear following the citation.
