FYI, most Christians are not creationists.

All Christians are creationists. The most important words in the Old Testament are contained in Genesis 1:1. If you don't believe those words, you certainly can not have any belief in a Son of God. You may not like the proper use of the language but there you have it nonetheless.

Depends upon your definition of "creationism." If it's God as fundamental creator, prime cause, first cause, originator, etc., then you're right. If it's in the vein of "a global flood formed the Grand Canyon and man lived with dinosaurs 6,000 years ago", well, there are many dissenters.

Please explain clearly why this is true. You might want to read up on the "No True Scotsman" fallacy first.

Either way, your post has nothing to do with evolution.
