Answer 2

Initially, Creationism developed as a response by a minority of Christians to the Theory of Evolution. Its advocates attempted to have Creationism taught, in US schools, in science classes as a valid alternative to evolution. The courts blocked this attempt, on the grounds that Creationism is a topic of religion and to teach it in science classes would breach the separation of church and state.

Creationism evolved, with a new name "Creation Science" to suggest that it was now a science. However, the courts continued to maintain that it was a topic of religion, not science. That is to say that there is no reason not to teach Creationism or Creation Science in a religious context, but this must be separate from the normal school curriculum.

The continuing popularity of Creationism in the US indicates that it is a theistic social-political movement, partly driven by concerns over the societal consequences of disbelief in a creator. In 1999, the "Wedge Document" prepared by the creationist Discovery Institute was leaked to the internet. After initially denying it, the Institute confirmed the document's authenticity. The document says that the Institute seeks nothing less than the overthrow of materialism and its cultural legacies, with a governing goal to replace materialistic explanations with the theistic understanding that nature and human beings are created by God.

Creationism is the belief that the universe and living organisms originate from specific acts of divine creation, as opposed to the scientific theory of evolution. It is often based on religious texts such as The Bible and typically rejects the idea of natural selection and common ancestry. Creationism has been a topic of debate in the realms of science education and public policy.
