Young-earth creationism faces an insurmountable challenge for the simple reason that young-earth models critically depend on radically altered laws of physics—laws altered not by a factor of 5 or 10 times, but by a factor of millions to billions at the fall of Adam and/or the flood of Noah.

Young Earth Creationism (YEC) is a powerful antievolutionary force speaking for some half of Americans and on the rise in other parts of the world. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of YEC in the context of the relationship between religion and science. The centerpiece of the paper will be an in-depth review
We analyzed texts representing Young Earth creationism (YEC) and intelligent design (ID) for their theological content and implications by assessing their position in central issues of systematic theology.
