  Creation biology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Creation biology represents a very limited research program and is not considered a part of mainstream science, having been described with the rest of creation science as a pseudoscience by skeptics and many outspoken members of the scientific community (see Creation-evolution controversy).
Creation biology is based on the assumption that God created all life on the planet as described in the Genesis account of Creation, in a finite number of discrete created kinds or baramin.
Created kinds or Baraminology, that is, the idea that life was originally created in a finite number of discrete "kinds" or "baramin", and that while these kinds had the ability to vary significantly within their kind, one kind cannot interbreed with another kind, and new kinds cannot arise spontaneously.

 Creation science - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Creation science disputes the theory of the common descent of all life via biological evolution and argues in favour of creation biology.
Fideists criticize creation science on the grounds either that religious faith, alone, should be a sufficient basis for belief, or that efforts to prove the Genesis account of creation on scientific grounds are inherently futile, arguing that faith is a necessary component of divine salvation.
Creation biology centers around an idea derived from Genesis that states that life was created by God in a finite number of created kinds rather than through biological evolution.

We differ in that we believe their data fit the Bible’s “creation model” best and the facts should be applied to it, rather than to the unproven “theory of evolution model.” Still, we are not so naive as to believe that our saying so will change the opinions of anyone.
