Answer: The message of creationism (the young earth kind) is that The Bible can be trusted from start to finish. Although it is not a book of science it is totally trustworthy when it speaks of things relevant to science. There is no incompatibility between science (properly understood) and faith. Great scientists of the past were believers in creationism (although not by that name) including such greats as Newton and Keppler. It is also important to understand that all scientific data (evidence) is interpreted within a presuppositional framework. Evolutionists interpret all their data within a naturalistic worldview which by definition excludes God (this conclusion itself was not reached by experiment but by belief). Creationists are interpreting reality through a biblical framework that includes a recent creation and a worldwide flood.
Creationism also sets mankind in his place both as a unique creature above the animals and with a 'dominion mandate' to both rule over and responsibly care for the environment. It also answers ultimate questions such as "where did we come from?" and points out that we are not just tiny specks in a vast universe but are created "in God's image" and thus are able to find the creation both orderly and comprehensible. Many of the great scientists of the past who believed in a divine creator saw themselves and their investigations as merely 'thinking God's thoughts after Him'. Rather than stifling science, modern science was born in a 'creationist' environment. This fact is even recognised by evolutionist historians of science.

∙ 7y agoThe essential message of creationism is that God created the world. Important for the proponents of creationism is that this implies the existence of God.
Because creationism rejects the fact of evolution, an implicit message of creationism is that we should not trust any evidence that conflicts with long-held beliefs, no matter how strong or well-attested that evidence is.
