I don't see there being a conflict between believing in both if you take them both with a grain of salt and admit that we don't have all the answers
I think that if you look at the story of creation in genesis it actually follows very nicely the theory of evolution
first there is nothingness....both agree on this
then something set off a change.....in science they call it the big bang, in creationism it's G-d's work....both are this mysterious force that we can't even begin to fathom
first thing created is the universe.....both agree on that
then came solar system....both agree on that, science talks of the need of a star to supply the energy for life to be able to live and creationism talks about day and night
then came land masses......both agree on this as well...science says that gravity formed planets and that there was a distinction between masses and creationism talks of land and water
then there was animals......and what came first?
both are in agreement....the small things, the things that slithered and slimed and crawled about...the single cell organism of evolutionary science
after that came the larger water animals, which, again, both agree on
and then the land animals
and then, finally....what?
humans
it all matches up if you are willing to take them not literally trying to be exact but with the knowledge that the universe was created in SOME WAY....
I mean....we ARE here

The both have flaws but they both have some truth. Creationism is not about a god creating the heavens and earth in just six days. Any idiot can figure that out when you take out the indoctrination part of a man thinking.
Creationism is about man's own ability to use his God like qualities to create himself. You don't need the middle man called religion to have a relationship with creativity. Evolution is about enlightenment. When the light goes on in your soul only then will your see how Christianity is really limiting your ability to see who and what your really are.
It is only a matter time mankind will be free from religion once and for all. In the mean time we will continue to try save those who are lost to limiting mental practices.

there are many evidence that proves evolution is NOT TRUE. We can prove that evolution is not true through science. If we believe in the theory of constant then it will prove that evolution is wrong. example; the amount of magnetic field surrounding the earth is deteriorating at a set amount each year. If we calculate it going back to the beginning of time, we would end up having a magnetic layer that is very strong for an organism not to survive which gives us only a couple of thousands of years for Earth's age and not billions of years. there are many more to prove this point but it will be futile to include it all in here.
I believe in creationism,

I think evolution is a viable theory, given available evidence. Although, it would be very presumptuous and almost certainly wrong to think we know the complete truth.
I think creationism is a belief, and it is one that I do not share. It is not a theory, so it cannot ever be proven right or wrong. I would not call it a retarded belief, though, as it certainly is one possible explanation for how biological species came to be.

Evolution is proven by scientific evidence. Creationism is delusion based on religious belief.
Any questions?

Evolution, in addition to having been established science for a hundred years, is a proven fact. Biologists use it all the time because it gives correct results. By contrast, creationism is useless: it can predict nothing.

I don't think that creationism is retarded, but another way of thinking. I personally believe in evolution but I have nothing against creationists since I have friends who are that.

just blame it on the talking snake should have been a goat .
No I believe creationism is false mainly because there is no god to perform the creation . What do you have a supernatural yardstick or just a gullible superstitious mindset:meaning if you believe in the supernatural in a natural world where is the evidence ?

Evolution is as true as gravity. Belief in creationism is belief in fairytales.
