I'm happy with the term.
:I hope this comes over the way I intended it to do: As a request for clarification since this is a complex issue, and not as a stubborn newbie barking up the wrong tree :P --[[User:JakeC|JakeC]] 22:35, 26 December 2007 (EST)

: "''it implies that either one is or is not a creationist, when in fact many lack a clearcut opinion''": That comment could be made about almost any label that you attach to people, including "liberal" and "conservative".
: "''it implies that anyone who believes in creation is a creationist, when in fact the term doesn't mean that''": I believe that it does mean that. What do you think it means?
: "''it implies that it is a belief system rather than a logical and scientific conclusion''": That's the objection that evolutionists have with the word "evolutionist", but the point is that it ''is'' a belief, and it's ''not'' really scientific (just as evolution is not scientific) because it is dealing with unique past events that are outside the realm of scientific investigation.
: I'm quite happy with the term, and it's used quite readily by, umm, ''creationists''.
