“Well, creationism, in essence, is believing that the world began as the Bible in Genesis says, that God created the Earth in six days, six 24-hour periods. And there is just as much, if not more, evidence supporting that.”

Christine O'Donnell (1969) American Tea Party politician and former Republican Party candidate
