===Modern religious affiliations=== Most creation science proponents hold fundamentalist or Evangelical Christian beliefs in Biblical literalism or Biblical inerrancy, as opposed to the [[Historical criticism|higher criticism]] supported by [[liberal Christianity]] in the [[Fundamentalist–Modernist Controversy]]. However, there are also examples of [[Islamic views on evolution|Islamic]] and [[Jewish views on evolution|Jewish]] scientific creationism that conform to the accounts of creation as recorded in their religious doctrines.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Sayin |first1=Ümit |last2=Kence |first2=Aykut |date=November–December 1999 |title=Islamic Scientific Creationism: A New Challenge in Turkey |url=http://ncse.com/rncse/19/6/islamic-scientific-creationism |journal=Reports of the National Center for Science Education |volume=19 |issue=6 |pages=18–20, 25–29 |issn=2158-818X |access-date=2014-09-18}}</ref><ref name="Scott_1997">{{cite journal |last=Scott |first=Eugenie C. |author-link=Eugenie Scott |year=1997 |url=http://bio.classes.ucsc.edu/bio175/Other/Scott_1997.pdf |title=Antievolutionism and Creationism in the United States |journal=[[Annual Review of Anthropology]] |volume=26 |pages=263–289 |issn=0084-6570 |access-date=2014-09-18 |doi=10.1146/annurev.anthro.26.1.263 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150613195924/http://bio.classes.ucsc.edu/bio175/Other/Scott_1997.pdf |archive-date=2015-06-13 |url-status=dead }}</ref> The [[Seventh-day Adventist Church]] has a history of support for creation science. This dates back to [[George McCready Price]], an active Seventh-day Adventist who developed views of flood geology,<ref>{{Harvnb|Numbers|2006|pp=[https://books.google.com/books?id=GQ3TI5njXfIC&pg=PA88 88–119]}}</ref> which formed the basis of creation science.<ref>{{Harvnb|Numbers|2006|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=GQ3TI5njXfIC&pg=PA268 268]}}</ref> This work was continued by the [[Geoscience Research Institute]], an official institute of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, located on its [[Loma Linda University]] campus in California.<ref>{{Harvnb|Numbers|2006|pp=[https://books.google.com/books?id=GQ3TI5njXfIC&pg=PA320 320–328]}}</ref> Creation science is generally rejected by the [[Church of England]] as well as the [[Catholic Church|Roman Catholic Church]]. The [[Pontifical Gregorian University]] has officially discussed intelligent design as a "cultural phenomenon" without scientific elements. The Church of England's official website cites Charles Darwin's local work assisting people in his religious parish.<ref>{{cite news |last=Irvine |first=Chris |date=February 11, 2009 |title=The Vatican claims Darwin's theory of evolution is compatible with Christianity |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/4588289/The-Vatican-claims-Darwins-theory-of-evolution-is-compatible-with-Christianity.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220112/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/religion/4588289/The-Vatican-claims-Darwins-theory-of-evolution-is-compatible-with-Christianity.html |archive-date=2022-01-12 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |newspaper=[[The Daily Telegraph]] |location=London |access-date=2014-09-18}}{{cbignore}}</ref>
