or "intelligent design" or its other variations?

It depends upon your definition of Scientist. If a scientist is simply one with a PhD and they conduct some experiments to prove this or that then yes there are.
If a scientist is one that looks at the evidence objectively and draws conclusion from the evidence and makes inferences based only on the evidence at hand and are honest about the results then there are none that are creationists as portrayed by the media.
There are many scientists, biologists specifically, that believe in God and are religious. There is a difference. Creationism is a product of two groups. First the fundamental absolutists that believe that the Bible is a text book for everything.
And two the media.
Scientists and their views, beliefs, practices and personal lives and feelings are as diverse as any other profession.

Yes. Two people can look at the same thing and come up with different answers. The people who say that there is no scientific evidence to support creationism are wrong, I have done research and some of the things they say makes sense. Though I am skeptical of intelligent design, I would like to see more scientists study the possibilities. Read "Scientific Creationism", It is written by multiple scientists and biologists. It gives the theory of intelligent design a look over. Basically, it all comes down to faith, be you a evolutionist or creationist bacause both theories cannot be proved. We were not there when life began and both theories are equally as good as each other when it comes to science, just evolution is better publicised and understood.
People who believe everything they hear rarely do the world a favor.

I actual have under no circumstances, ever heard of an genuinely biologist believing in creationism. Christian biologists, positive, because there is no requirement for a Christian t be a creationist (and maximum are not).

Sure there are. There just aren't real biologists that reject evolution in favor of intelligent design. Evolution is a theory that is universally accepted by the scientific community. The "debate" over evolution only takes place outside of it.
Also, the theory of evolution is supported by evidence. ID is supported by faith.
To a cop the explanation's always simple. There's no mystery to the street, no arch criminal behind it all. If you find a body and you think his brother did it, you're gonna find out you're right.

Yes. Intelligent design is believed by many scientists, including biologists. Of course, very few are willing to go public about it for fear of ridicule.

I highly doubt a biologist would believe in creationism, because it's pseudoscience. What would be the point of their career, which has everything to do with science and evolution, if they believed in creationism?

World is composed of people who believe different theories. Biologists are no different.

i doubt it!! maybe there are those who believe in creatures from other places in the universe, i don't really know about that, but i doubt whether there are any biologists who believe in creationism!!
