Despite some disagreement from evolutionists, the theory of creationism has strong support among scientists across disciplines. Several physicists - members of the RATE Group - recently concluded that a theory of accelerated radioactive decay supported a theory of a young earth, and suggested flaws in radiometric dating that place the Earth's age in the billions, rather than the thousands.[1] An increasing number of skeptics, including the Reverend Michael Reiss, a biologist and pastor in the Church of England, suggest teaching creationism alongside evolution.[2]
