Clearly, all creationists deny that the biological theory of evolution is valid. (That's what the definition of creationist is-as I use it anyway). I am only wondering how much of them go further to deny the physical sciences as well. Some accept the geological age of the earth (in the billions of year) and the cosmological age of the universe (also in the billions of years), such as the Jehova's Witnesses. Others reject these time scales, despite the fact that they have nothing to do with biological evolution, because of a literal interpretation of biblical chronology.
If you are a creationist, do you only deny evolution, or anything in science that contradicts your sense of scriptural chronology? Do you believe that every event in the Bible (like the flood) literally happened?
Also, is there any reason why you feel evolution contradicts your faith, besides a literal interpretation of the Genesis narrative?
