Young Earth Creationism

Young earth creationism involves two claims. First, there is the claim that the earth and the cosmos as a whole is only a few thousand years old - hence the name young earth. And second, there's the claim that life forms on earth did not evolve, but were directly created by god,. Jimmy: We need to look at it from the perspectives of faith and reason. As mediaevals like saint saquinas recognized, all truth is god's truth so faith and reason need to work together.
