Well you can make up any Creation myth you like, evolution is the only theory (that word again) that happens to be true.
If by any chance you are referring to ID, thats just Creationism with a new name.

God or the two forms of evolution.
the following is an important and necessary guideline in this discussion of evolution. The word evolution is generally used in at least two different senses, and the distinction between them is important. On the one hand, the word evolution is used to denote the descent of all life from a putative single primitive source. It is the grand sweep of evolution that is supposed to have led from a simple beginning, something perhaps simpler than a bacterium, to all organisms living today, including humans. This descent is supposed to have occurred through purely natural means. Neo-Darwinian theory (NDT), which is the prevailing theory of evolution, teaches that this development occurred through random heritable variations in the organisms followed by natural selection. I shall denote the word evolution used in this sense as Evolution A. When evolution is discussed for popular consumption, it is most often Evolution A.
The second sense in which the word evolution is used is to denote any kind of change of a population. The change can sometimes occur in response to environmental pressure (artificial or natural selection), and sometimes it can just be random (genetic drift). I shall denote the word used in this second sense as Evolution B. Evolution B has been observed. Evolution A is an inference, but is not observable. The distinction between these two meanings of evolution parallels the distinction between macroevolution and microevolution, but the two pairs of terms are not identical. Evolution A is certainly what is called macroevolution, but what is called macroevolution is not identical with Evolution A.

Abiogenesis.
But that deals with the beginning of the universe. Not with Evolution. The one follows the other.

You left out the now common theory of Creative evolution. I like to think of it as two sides of one coin with the reality probaby being somewhat in the middle of each.

Panspermia?

"Creationism" is generally assumed to mean young-earth or "calender-day" creationism. My third option would be old-earth or "day-age" creationism. Please click my previous answers below to save me further typing. :)
I suppose panspermia could be another third option, but all that does is relocate the creation-evolution debate to another planet.
