Their religious ideology does not permit them to consider the genesis myths to be myths. Also they link many social problems, problems in their minds, with evolutionary theory and modern science.

Do any scientists today who are not creationists express dissent from Darwin and his views?
Such a person would have to meet three requirements: 1) Publishes articles in peer reviewed scientific journals. 2) Religious or not, he/she doesn't concern him/herself with creationism. 3) Objects to evolution. I know of people who publish scientific articles and aren't religious/creationists - but they don't object to evolution. I know of people who publish scientific articles and object to evolution (though not simultaneously) - but they are creationists. I know of people who object to evolution but are not creationists - however they don't publish. I know of no people who meet all three criteria.
What do creationists believe on the origin of humans?
Creationists do not believe in Evolution. Since they believe the bible word for word, they truly believe that Adam was made out of clay, and Eve made out of one of his ribs.
Why Darwin's theory of evolution a theory in crisis?
The theory of evolution has passed on and is no longer just Darwin's theory and the only crisis in this theory is in the heads of delusional creationists.
What are the divisions of evolution?
Evolution is sometimes described as macro-evolution, which is the long-term evolution of an entire new species, and micro-evolution, which is largely to do with less significant evolutionary changes within a species. Many creationists accept the existence of micro-evolution, but say that macro-evolution does not occur.
What was the last scientific theory to challenge the theory of evolution?
No scientific theory ever challenged the theory of evolution.
How many types of Creationists are there?
Creationists can be styled as "Young Earth" Creationists and "Old Earth Creationists".Young Earth Creationists believe that the world is literally only about 6,000 years old, based on a literal reading of the biblical Book of Genesis. They believe that species have not evolved, but were created much as we know them today.Old Earth Creationists accept the scientific evidence that the world is immensely old, but say that evolution, if it occurred at all, was guided by "Intelligent Design".Another way of categorising some Creationists is as either Cosmic Creationists, who see intelligent design because the laws of the universe are exactly what suits the evolution of human life, or Biological Creationists, who say that the universe is so uncongenial to life that life could not have evolved naturally.For more information on creationism and other views on our origin, please visit: http://christianity.answers.com/theology/the-story-of-creation
Why does the issue of evolution continue to resurface?
In science and the real world evolution is fact and the theory that explains much about this fact is well supported by the evidence. In some peoples lives evidence and even the modern world mean nothing next to their ideological position. This includes religious creationists and secular creationists.
What do creationists believe in?
The views of creationists vary, so I will give you a very general set of beliefs.Creationists generally believe:- God created everything in present form. Evolution is not true.- The earth is 6,000 to 10,000 years old.- The complexity of DNA proves that everything was designed by God.- There was a global flood.- Dinosaurs and humans coexisted.Hopefully you get the picture by now. Obviously, science completely contradicts creationism. Evolution is very much true.AnswerTo find out what creationists believe in, I suggest you google : (1) "Answers in Genesis" to see what creationists believe, and then(2) "Evolution vs Creation" or something similar to see what scientists say and whether evolution is at all possible or not.Then make up your own mind. [Look up the definition of a religion and you will see that evolution is also a religion].
What is evolutionism?
Evolutionism is the idea that species change over time through the process of evolution by natural selection. It is a scientific theory that explains the diversity of life on Earth and how organisms adapt to their environment over generations. Evolutionism is supported by substantial evidence from various scientific disciplines, including biology, genetics, and paleontology.
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

Do creationists believe in convergent evolution?
No. You can't define the evolution of a single species as convergent. Rather convergent evolution is a comparison of the evolution of two or more groups of organism, which independently evolve similar adaptations. The evolution of birds, bats, and pterosaurs is an example of convergent evolution: in all three groups the forelimbs developed into wings.
