As a matter of fact, why is "creationist" even a word?[...]Creationism is the study that all life and matter was created by a divine entity, in any way, shape, or form. That's it. That's all it is. If you believe that evolution is one of the many works of God, then you're a creationist, and you believe in evolution. It's not soppossed to be "one or the other", although it's turned into that.

Their are people who don't believe in Evolution. It is practical to have a word for them that distinguieshed them from other religious people.
Society agreed to use the word creationist to describe them.

The thing that puzzles me that people say is this: Only religeous people think that evolution and creation can co-exist, or that only believers in God think that evolution and religeon can co exist.

Who says that? I would think that there are more christians who believe that evolution and creation can't co-exist than their are atheists who do so.
In good old europe most religious people have accepted evolution. On contrast in the US their are a lot of religious people who think they have to fight it, because it threatens their faith.
