Creationists are people who hold to the belief that the universe is the handiwork of a supernatural being. While most scientists today are atheists, there are a great many scientists alive today and from history who are creationists. Creation science is philosophically based on this presupposition. Within the creationist community there are those who belief the earth is young, and others who accept modern age dating techniques as valid indicators of an old earth.

Creationism typically stems from a religious worldview, and most creationists use information provided by religious texts when forming theories regarding the nature of the world. For example, Jews and Christians use the Bible as their reference, whereas Muslims use the Qur'an. However, another group of creationists, known as intelligent design theorists, do not use religious texts as reference material, but they have simply recognized that the universe contains evidence that it was created.
