Perhaps I should have said, creationist vs. evolutionist. That is the type of thread we are on. The contraction crevo is shorthand, has no negative implications. It is one of the least controversial things on these threads.

So crevo = creationist. Whatever. Of course, what "creationist" means itself varies by poster. Mr. Walsh uses the term to mean the Big Bang, which really is a scientific "theory," and beyond speculation. So whatever. The use of the term in my opinion, even with your codicil, I think nevertheless still obfuscates more than elucidates, when it comes to clear communication. The use of the term is something less useful than creative destruction.
