Old Earth creationism (OEC) is an umbrella term for a number of types of creationism, including gap creationism, progressive creationism, and evolutionary creationism. The worldview is typically more compatible with mainstream scientific thought on the issues of physics, chemistry, geology and the age of the Earth, in comparison to young Earth creationism.

Famous quotes containing the word earth:
“Till the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle-flags were
furled
In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.
There the common sense of most shall hold a fretful realm in awe,
And the kindly earth shall slumber, lapped in universal law.”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
