evolutionism 

A belief originally perpetuated by Charles Darwin, that all life originated from single-celled organisms. And a Big Bang. This belief contradicts creationism, which believes a supreme being, generally God, created enough kinds of animals for natural selection to take effect, and the variety of species today is a result. Evolution is not the same as natural selection
The number of scientists who believe in evolutionism is decreasing

Evolutionist 

A person who realizes science has evidence and creation does not. A term created by creationists to claim 90% of science is false because it claims evolution, abiogenesis, physics, chemistry, technology, and quantum mechanics explain everything we see and nothing has ever proven a god much less a creation.

It can also apply to religious people who believe in a god but also support the fact that science has evidence and their beliefs just have a book.
Those stupid evolutionists are always talking about everything coming from nothing and humans evolving from rocks.

When an evolutionist says millions of years know everything they say is false because the Bible says differently.

evolutionist 

One who argues that evolution is the correct theory of origins for life on earth (instead of creationism or Intelligent Design). The word was coined by creationists as a way to mischaracterize scientists that denounce creationism. "Evolutionist" implies that evolution is merely an unsupported belief ultimately interchangeable with creationism. In fact, most scientists "believe" in evolution because the of the great amount of research and empirical evidence that supports it. The word evolutionist is a mildly offensive term to most scientists.
I see no reason to read the works of noted evolutionist Prof. Steve Steve-- the Bible has all the evidence I need.

evolutionist 

Supposedly a word for someone who believes (in actuality, has knowledge of) evolution. This is a funny word because you don't find it anywhere outside creationist websites.
That would make me an evolutionist, if I can use that word outside of the pointless evolution/creation debate.

Evolutionist 

-Doesn't actually exist. There is no such faction or mindset as an 'evolutionist', which has so far not prevented the more literal-minded creationists from leaping on the title.
Evolutionist. -A fine example of poor English topped off with a platform to stand on.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
