Creationism isn’t a religion though, and that’s the point I was making. It’s been called a religion by evos on this forum.

Creationism: beliefs affirmed conforming to

The ICR Statement has been removed from the internets, but it was similar to the CSR and CMI/AiG beliefs. Which would be expected as the ICR is the transitional form between the CSR and the Creation Science Foundation (CSF) (the "missing link" between CMI and AiG)

While not having the antiquity is the Nicene Creed, there seems to be sufficient similarity to define a religion.

All are similar with belief in a recent world wide Noahian Flood. The core is the Flood Geology of George MacReady Price which affirmed the Young Earth Noachian Flood doctrine of Adventist prophetess Ellen G White.

Although adopted by some Evangelical Christians in the last century, the tenets of Creationism (as identified by the statements of beliefs of Creationists) are held by less than 25% of Christians within the Untied States, and maybe 5-10% outside it.
