No.
Creationism is faith, based on the Creation-story of Genesis and praises the biblical god as creator of all the Universe, all Earth and all life (in 6 days).
Evolution is a theory of science (Biology). The Theory of Evolution by Means of Natural Selection, first proposed by Charles Darwin and Alfred Russell Wallace. Evolution is part of natural science and explains the histories and diversifications of all of Earth's organisms. Evolution does not have to do with the origin of the Universe or the Planet Earth, which creationism may mention in its origins-explanations. (The origins of the Universe and the Solar System and Earth are explained by another branch of natural science - Cosmology and Astronomy).
The Theory of Evolution states that life has changed since its beginnings (abiogenesis) by Natural Selection. The main unit of Evolution is the gene. Populations genetically diverge until they are so separate they are distinguishable and may become reproductively isolated. This is an instance of speciation, the origin of species.
Evolution relies upon observation of the world to explain the world (genetics, palaeontology, comparative morphology are all used as evidence to construct the picture of evolution).
Creationism relies on the writings of biblical texts to explain the world. There is no material evidence to support the claims of creationism as creationism is faith based.
Indeed there are many contrasts between Evolution and Creationism. They both explain the same thing (life and how it came to be as it is today), but Evolution is logical and fact-collecting, a real process seen in the world today and (via fossils) in the distant past whereas Creationism is a comforting faith-based story with no backing evidence of events described in the creation story of Genesis.

How does evolution involve creationism?
Evolution does NOT involve creationism.Evolution is a testable and therefore provable explanation as to how the diversity of life on earth has happened.Creationism is a religious viewpoint and therefore a mater of faith.AnswerI agree with the above. Evolution does NOT involve Creationism. Evolution is a branch of biological science and thus rejects "supernatural" claims such as those of Creationism, does not need to consider them. Creationism, often hanging on Genesis, the first book of the Bible, predates scientific inquiry and the scientific method and so is thus rejected by science and thus evolutionary science. In the public spotlight, the so-called Evolution-Creation "controversy" and all the on-stage arguments and debates might make it seem as though Evolution and Creationism (and Intelligent Design) have a lot to do with one another, but I doubt Creationism gets much mention at all in scientific laboratories and scientific conferences (it can't because it hasn't got anything to say about the real world.)
Why is creationism wrong?
Creationism is not considered scientifically accurate because it is based on religious beliefs rather than empirical evidence. It does not align with the overwhelming scientific consensus that evolution is the best explanation for the diversity of life on Earth, as supported by extensive research in fields like genetics, paleontology, and biology. Creationism is not falsifiable or testable in the same way that scientific theories are.
What does creationism mean?
According to Wikipedia, Creationism is the religious belief that humanity, life, the Earth, and the universe were created in their original form by a deity (often the Abrahamic God of Judaism, Christianity and Islam) or deities.Initially, Creationism developed as a response by a minority of Christians to the Theory of Evolution. Its advocates attempted to have Creationism taught, in US schools, in science classes as a valid alternative to evolution. The courts blocked this attempt, on the grounds that Creationism is a topic of religion and to teach it in science classes would breach the separation of church and state.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
What is Richard Dawkins' view on Creationism?
Richard Dawkins is the Charles Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science, at Oxford University. In this position, he clearly has a sound understanding of scientific issues such as evolution and the creation of the universe. This has led him to believe that Creationism is inherently untrue. Since his role is to advance the public understaning of Science, he has written books such as The God Delusion(Bantam Press, 2006) to explain his views.I think that Professor Dawkins sees Creationism as dependently linked to religious belief. Where he views Creationism to contend with Science, which he asserts is quite often, Dawkins prefers to focus on the inherent failure of the underlying religious belief rather than simply demonstrating the error of the Creationist belief and leaving the proponent to continue in his or her religious beliefs.The debate around creationism and evolution is more fully covered in: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
Why does evolution disprove creationism?
Creationism basically promotes an essentialist notion: the notion that life is static and lifeforms unchanging. The facts show that life is continually diverging, stemming from common ancestors. This disproves the notion of special creation of modern lifeforms, and the notion that such lifeforms are essentially unchanging.

When did Eisenhower mandate evolution?
President Eisenhower did not mandate evolution, this is a myth as far as my research has shown. As a matter of fact he was a staunch believer in Creationism. See link: http://www.icr.org/article/presidential-support-for-creationism
Does Buddhism believe in creationism vs evolution?
Buddhist believe there are no gods. Evolution would be the logical belief they would follow.
How can creationism and evolutionism co-exist?
reconciliation of Creation with Evolution is the view of Old-Earth Creationism, which holds that God made the universe and then guided Evolution over long epochs.In repudiation of Evolution, however, Young-Earth Creationism holds that God created the universe and living things relatively recently without the use of Evolution.See also:Is there evidence for Creation?Can you show that God exists?Seeing God's wisdom

What are the two kinds of Creationism?
The two main kinds of Creationism are young Earth Creationism, which believes in a literal interpretation of the Bible and asserts that the Earth is only a few thousand years old, and old Earth Creationism, which accepts scientific evidence for the age of the Earth but still believes in a divine creator.

What are facts that prove that both creationism and evolution are both right?
Creationism is religious dogma. Nothing proves its correctness. As any scientist with a dictionary would tell you, nothing proves evolution either. But there is a heck of a lot of evidence and testing that suggests it is about as right as we can get.
Do you think that Evolution and Creationism should be taught in school?
Evolution is a widely accepted scientific theory supported by extensive evidence, and should be taught in science classes. Creationism, however, is based on religious beliefs and is not supported by scientific evidence, so it is not appropriate to be taught in a science classroom. It may be more suitable for discussion in courses on religion or philosophy.
Should public schools teach creationism alongside evolution in science classes?
No. Teaching creationism alongside evolutionary theory would suggest that they are equivalent explanations. They are not. Evolutionary theory is a well-established scientific model; creationism is a religious myth, and should be taught as such.
