"Evolutionism" is nonsense, not because evolution is incorrect, but accepting its validity is not a religious claim like Creationism actually is. By the logic of calling the acceptance of evolution as evolutionism, we should call people gravitationalists, roundworldists, and germists because they "believe" in gravity, a round world, and that germs cause diseases. Evolution by natural selection simply means that by random genetic differences selected by environmental factors, creatures slowly change from one species to another. The largest number of people who accept evolution are Christians, not Atheists, even though a much larger percentage of Atheists accept evolution than Christians. Evolution says nothing about God, souls, the afterlife, or our place in the universe. It only explains the diversity of life.

Atheism is the rejection of all god claims. It is a specific claim about what religions can demonstrate to be true.

In the medieval period did other religions promote humanism then and now?

Agnosticism,Atheism,Evolutionism,Humanism,Materialism,Secularism are essentially the same. As such, the answer is yes for current and previous religions. Thus, these cults support anti-supernatural bias built into their belief system; they reject any notion of God or any deity. Matter in one form or the other is the only thing that has existed forever and that will exist forever.

Who does evolutionism impact the most?

The important issue is that the Question does not ask about the impact of evolution, but the impact of evolutionism. "Evolutionism" is defined as the belief that evolution explains the origin of species.The body of science relating to evolution should not be considered "evolutionism", since the term suggests belief, rather than knowledge and scientific theory. Nevertheless, creationists tend to use the term to suggest that the Theory of Evolution and creationism should be treated as equal concepts.Arguably, since the term "evolutionism" is mainly used by creationists, it is creationists themselves who are mainly impacted by evolutionism.For more information, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
