Morris set up the Creation Science Research Center (CSRC), an organization dominated by Baptists, as an adjunct to the Christian Heritage College. [27] The CSRC rushed publication of biology text books that promoted creationism. [27] These efforts were against the recommendations of Morris, who urged a more cautious and scientific approach.

The basis for many creationists' beliefs is a literal or quasi-literal interpretation of the Book of Genesis.The Genesis creation narratives (Genesis 1–2) describe how God brings the Universe into being in a series of creative acts over six days and places the first man and woman (Adam and Eve) in the Garden of Eden.
Progressive creationism is the religious belief that God created new forms of life gradually over a period of hundreds of millions of years.

Frank Lewis Marsh coined the term baramin in his book Fundamental Biology (1941) and expanded on the concept in Evolution, Creation, and Science (c. 1944), in which he stated that the ability to hybridize and create viable offspring was a sufficient condition for being members of the same baramin.
Before Darwin, natural theology both assumed the existence of God and used the appearance of function in nature to argue for the existence of God.
