Creationism is the belief that the Universe and Life originate “from specific acts of divine creation.” When referencing Creastionism or Creationists in my posts, I am referring to the school of thought that believes in a biblical literalist interpretation of the Genesis creation narrative and the rejection of the scientific theory of evolution.
Intelligent design (ID) is the pseudoscientific view] that “certain features of the universe and of living things are best explained by an intelligent cause, not an undirected process such as natural selection.
