A creation scientist is one who attempts to use traditional tools of science to show that the scientific evidence is consistent with the biblical record.
Creation scientists haven't yet figured what came first: the chicken or the egg. This is known as the creation conundrum. Evolutionists maintain that the egg must have come first, since, a true chicken can only hatch from a true chicken egg, but two parent birds which were not quite 'genetically' chickens can in theory have fertilised and laid it, and given rise to the first true chicken. How one defines what is genetically a true chicken and what is not quite a chicken is, of course, open for debate.
United States courts have held that creation science, as practiced by creation scientists, is a form of religion. See, e.g., Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District, 400 F. Supp.2d 724.
