This article is about a religious viewpoint in the "Creation–evolution controversy". For a discussion of the evolution of theism, see Evolutionary psychology of religion.

Theistic evolution, theistic evolutionism, or evolutionary creationism are views that regard religious teachings about God as compatible with modern scientific understanding about biological evolution. Theistic evolution is not a scientific theory, but a range of views about how the science of general evolution relates to religious beliefs in contrast to special creation views.
