Old Earth Creationism (OEC)

Evolutionary Creationism (EC)

  • Evolutionary creationists accept the belief of mainstream science that dinosaurs have lived on Earth since approximately 240 million years ago, but that the only dinosaurs that have survived the Cretacious-Tertiary extinction 66 million years ago are birds.
  • They do not believe that non-avian dinosaurs have ever been contemporary with humans, or that Noah took young dinosaurs or fertile dinosaur eggs on the Ark.
