Depends on how one defines "Creationism", Bill. Does one mean a creation that just happened "POOF!" in a magical instant or in a series of 24-hour days? (highly unlikely seems to me) Or does one mean a process of creation that happened gradually through what we would conventionally describe now as natural processes.

If the latter, the debate is not about whether it happened or not, but whether there was a form of consciousness, purpose, and intention actively involved in the process from the beginning...and still involved.

And that is the real crux of debates between people about the existence of God...or of a Divine purpose...or not. Either the Universe as we know it is "accidental" or it's not. Either it's full of meaning...or it's not. If it's not accidental, then that suggests a much deeper meaning to the origins of life than mere happenstance...and resultant survival tactics.

To put it another way, either we make up whatever sense of meaning we have, and that's all there is to it...or it's always been there, and we tune into it because we came from it, and it's natural to us to tune into it.
