Creationism?
I reject it totally, if by that you mean accepting a literal interpretation of Genesis with its two or three different creation stories. I also reject the literal historicity of just about all the rest of Genesis as well. None of that would surprise very many Christians, including just about everyone in The Vatican these days. To the annoyance of my atheist friends of course I still see God as creator and sustainer of the universe, though I have no idea how this happened/happens or even exactly what it means.
What I do know is my own ancestry. I know that 40,000 years before Noah, let alone Adam and Eve, some of my ancestors were here in Australia. Really. I know that when the millennia finally ran round to c.4,000 or 3,000 BC my ancestors knew nothing of the Middle East and cared even less… Makes literal belief in Genesis very hard to swallow indeed. Fortunately as a Christian I don’t have to swallow it, and neither do you.
