Also, to use the terms with ideal but not common precision (i.e., to use the
terms they way they -should- be used, but not the way they usually -are-
used), certainly those who are Evolutionary Creationists are still
creationists. They're just not YEC's or PCs, which is the overly narrow,
often polemical usage of "creationist".

So one can be anti-evolution without being pro-creation, and pro-evolution
without being anti-creation.

(I know you know this, Mike; I mean this more as a reminder for newcomers or
casual browsers of the list.)
