==Modern progressive creationism== In contrast to young Earth creationists, progressive creationists accept the [[geological column]] of the progressive appearance of plants and animals through time. To their viewpoint it accurately reflects the order in which God sequentially created kinds of organisms, starting with simple, single-celled organisms and progressing to complex multicellular organisms and the present day. They do not however accept the [[scientific consensus]] that these kinds evolved from each other, and believe that kinds are genetically limited, such that one cannot change into another.<ref name=Scott>{{cite web |url=http://ncse.com/creationism/general/creationevolution-continuum |title=The Creation/Evolution Continuum |access-date=2010-12-03 |author=Eugenie C.
