"There’s more to it then simply, “Oh the creationists use the term ‘Darwinist’ so Darwinian, Darwinist, has to go”."

No, actually there's not "more to it". The term "Darwinism" was started by the creationists to bash evolution. That other parties have picked up the terminology in no wise changes the perjorative intent.

I think Huxley was one of the first to use the term. And Darwinism it is so no more whining about it.
