Buddhism does not have a creation story. There are sects in certain regions of the world (Tibet, India, and Japan namely) that combine their older native religion with Buddhism and thus have creation mythology, but that really doesn't count. Many Buddhists, especially in the western world, do not have any bad blood with the scientific community or entanglement with old ideas, so they will generally tell you they believe in evolution and the big bang (or maybe a longer answer on that last part, depending on how much they read on astronomy). Buddhism has the advantage of being very adaptable to the changing world. When we eventually discover life in other parts of the universe, Buddhists and Atheists will be the only ones not freaking out. ;)
