Prior to reading the answers below, it is perhaps important to note that there is no 'creation theory'. There are various religious creation myths, but no comprehensive and robust scientific model that has any explanatory or predictive power.
Answer: Quite a few scientists support creation theory. This places them out of step with the mainstream scientists who believe in autobiogenesis, or a spontaneous origin of life, coupled with evolution. As Richard Dawkins put it "It is a monumental disagreement. One side or the other has got to be wrong, and not just slightly wrong but catastrophically, ignominiously, disastrously wrong."
Prior to the 20th Century, most scientists believed in Creation.
Today, there are numerous organizations of scientists who support creation theory: Answers in Genesis ; Creation Research, Science Education Foundation; Institute for Creation Research; The Creation SuperLibrary and others. Some publish peer-reviewed journals, such as the Creation Research Society's CRS Journal and the Journal of Creation by Creation Ministries International (The Australian arm of Answers in Genesis).
Answer While it is true that many "scientists" disagree with evolution in favor of creationism, that number drops significantly when you consider only those who study nature or life, and is almost non-existent when you consider only those with expertise in fields like Biology, Paleontology, geology or astronomy - the above list may seem impressive, but it is out of well over a hundred thousand PhD scientists alive today. Now it's also important to note that many scientists believe in some sort of god or creator, but are not creationists. Creationism generally refers to strict 6-day creation fundamentalism or the movement to teach that there is a god in science classes in public schools. About 60% of scientists believe in a personal god, many believe this god created life indirectly, which can be considered a different sort of creationism. Meanwhile about 99.85% of earth and life scientists (those same scientists who mostly believe in a personal god) accept evolution as well.
Answer Yes, quite a few actually. Many scientists and researchers have come to support the creation theory because as they study 'Creation -vs- Evolution' they have found that there are more 'holes' in the evolution theory than there are in 'Creation'.
Both Creationism and Evolution start with presuppositions. Evolution starts with the presupposition that God, if He exists, played no part in the development of species, but that they developed by macro-evolution or chance mutations that resulted in benefit to the organisms; Creationism presumes that He created all species, and that there are minor adaptions which occur naturally, called micro-evolution.
if new evidence doesn't support a scientific theory, scientists will either revise the theory to accommodate the new evidence or discard the theory altogether in favor of a more accurate explanation. This process is crucial for the progress of science as it ensures that theories are continuously tested and refined to reflect our understanding of the natural world.
As a machine learning model, I don't have personal beliefs. The theory of creation is a matter of individual faith and interpretation, with some beliefs attributing the origins of the universe to a divine creator or higher power. Scientists generally rely on evidence-based explanations like the Big Bang theory to understand the origins of the universe.
Creation scientists today argue that some of the main problems with Darwin's theory of evolution include the lack of evidence for transitional fossils, the complex structures in living organisms that seem to defy gradual accumulation through natural selection, and the origin of genetic information required for new traits to evolve. They challenge the validity of natural selection as the sole mechanism for evolutionary change.
Science generally supports the theory of evolution, which explains the development of life on Earth through natural selection and genetic variation over millions of years. The Big Bang theory is widely accepted among scientists as the most plausible explanation for the origin of the universe.
It is not a theory; it is an ancient tradition. It states that the universe, and everything in it, originated through supernatural events (Creation), not random Evolution.

There is no scientific theory of creation.
Because they are not scientists and have ideological commitments that occludes their view of the truth. When you have a conclusion and then go looking for facts to support you are not doing science. Creation stories are a dime a dozen. All cultures have them and none of these stories, with some of the contradicting each other, agree with reality.
Scientists prove a theory by conducting experiments, making observations, and collecting data that support the theoretical predictions. Consistent and reproducible results from these experiments provide evidence to support the theory. Additionally, peer review and scrutiny by other scientists help validate the theory.
The Big Crunch Theory was not discovered by anyone. It was a theory proposed by many scientists as it does not have one person responsible for it's creation.
Wegner's theory was not accept because he didn't have much evidence to support his theory with and scientists thought that there might have been a land bridge between the continents. Another reason to why his theory was rejected was that he was a foreigner, by that; the scientists didn't really take him seriously.
Each scientists have there own opinion. Some accept theories and some have to have facts.
Scientists have not developed any theories about God's creation. They investigate the natural world and its origins, but have found no evidence that would require involvement of God (or gods) in the origin of the world.
Discard it all.

Christian scientists tend to believe in the theory of creation. However, this is not always the case. Creation is the theory which suggests God created the world, however there are different opinions to whether he created the world in 7 days or 7 years or 7000 years. But to answer your question, generally they believe in creation. (see Geneseis - first book in The Bible - for more detail)
Initially, Darwin's theory of evolution faced resistance and skepticism from some quarters, particularly from religious groups and scientists who supported creationism. However, over time, as more evidence accumulated in support of evolution through natural selection, the scientific community largely accepted Darwin's theory as the foundation of modern biology. Today, the theory of evolution is widely accepted among scientists and the majority of the general public.
