Not all Creationists are young earth creationists - in fact, it is slightly less than half
Line 3: Line 3:  
The one flaw of this perfect world was [[Satan]], who was able to trick Eve into consuming a fruit she had been forbidden by God from eating. The immediate effect of this was to introduce [[Sin]] into the universe. No longer perfect, but tainted by sin, the perfect universe rapidly decayed with the introduction of death, predation, disease, pain, and all other consequences of sin.

[[Creationism|Young-earth creationists]] have determined the fall accounts for various apparent contradictions with scientific dating mechanisms which assume an approximately uniform rate of change. Genetic dating, for example, would vastly exaggerate time spans prior to the Fall as in the perfect sinless state genetic mutation would be minimal.

The presence of sin also caused a gradual decline in human lifespans (Accounting for the extremely long lifespans of early biblical figures such as [[Noah]]) and moral turpitude, necessitating the advent of a [[Savior]]. The accumulation of sin-induced [[entropy]] gradually reduced lifespans and morals. Given sufficient time, this accumulation will become so great as to require the reconstruction of the earth, with the second coming of [[Christ]].
