In asking about a "modern creation story", the question seems to seek the scientific explanation that is an alternative to the many religious creation stories that developed in times past.
Scientist believe that the universe began with a cosmic event known as the "Big Bang" around 13 billion years ago. Eventually stars formed out of the cosmic material formed by the Big Bang", and our sun is a relatively young star. The Earth is a planet revolving around the sun, and was formed about 4.54 billion years ago.
When the Earth had cooled sufficiently, it was a perfect environment for the development of complex organic molecules. Some say that these conditions allowed certain molecules to self-replicate, which is normally something that only living things can do. Eventually, primitive living cells formed. And over the billions of years, these cells evolved into multi-cell organisms that were the forerunners of today's living creatures.

What is the modern day equivalent of wrought?

The modern-day equivalent of "wrought" often refers to something that has been shaped or crafted with care and effort, similar to "forged" or "crafted." In contemporary contexts, terms like "manufactured," "engineered," or "designed" can convey the same sense of intentional creation.

Who started creationism?

Answer:God started it on day one of creation. Mankind has believed it from the beginning of creation, since man was there and a part of it. Adam and Eve know the story to be true. A more appropriate question would be "Who started the idea of evolution?" because that is a fairly new belief. You will not find any writings as old as the Bible that teach evolution. AnswerMost anthropologists agree that religiosity (and creationist stories) began sometime around 50,000-200,000 years ago, although it might have been quite a bit earlier but that is when the first good evidence for religion appears. Every culture since has attempted to explain their existence by invoking a different version of creationism. AnswerIf you are referring to the modern young earth creation movement, then the book, The Genesis Flood, by the late Dr Henry Morris and Dr John Whitcomb in 1961 was an important starting point. Dr Morris has been called the father of the modern creation movement.Creationism has existed in some form for around 6000 years, as per the records of Jewish and then Christian society. In its modern form, creationism sprung up around the same time as evolution, as a response to defend against what was seen as a threat to their faith. The people who developed both are either not known in the first case, or many and varied in the second.
