∙ 9y agoInitially, 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.
Creationism evolved, with a new name "Creation Science" to suggest that it was now a science. However, the courts continued to maintain that it was a topic of religion, not science. That is to say that there is no reason not to teach Creationism or Creation Science in a religious context, but this must be separate from the normal school curriculum.
The continuing popularity of Creationism in the US indicates that it is a theistic social-political movement, partly driven by concerns over the societal consequences of disbelief in a creator. In 1999, the "Wedge Document" prepared by the creationist Discovery Institute was leaked to the internet. After initially denying it, the Institute confirmed the document's authenticity. The document says that the Institute seeks nothing less than the overthrow of materialism and its cultural legacies, with a governing goal to replace materialistic explanations with the theistic understanding that nature and human beings are created by God.

What is the difference between creationism and evolutionary theory?
Evolution is a scientific theory explaining the diversity of modern life. The various forms of creationism are religious beliefs, usually inspired by ancient myths captured in religious scriptures.
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.)
