I said I was only lurking, but I can't resist giving my opinion of the matter. To me, "creationism" is virtually synonymous with being anti-evolution -- and in many cases (but not all) being anti-science and anti-reason too. Those who find the theory of evolution to be persuasive, regardless of their theism or non-theism, aren't "creationists" as I would define the term. Most scientists are probably theistic evolutionists, and I don't consider them to be creationists. Similarly, many religious people, who truly believe that God created the universe, have no problem with evolution.

It is simple, macro-evolution in regards to mankind's current condition is diametrical opposed to the Bible.

For us to be part of your fan-club, we would have to disregard much of our Holy Book. Most are not willing to do that on the whim of the current scientific understandings.
