Search specifically for Greek creation, Hindu creation, etc. Try Wikipedia.

Each religious faith has it's own version of the creation, as does the secular world. I do not understand why you are having difficulty finding other stories of the creation. If you search the net, try about. com, look into Pagan beliefs, look under science/ big bang theory, check out the library, there are many ways to research many different and fascinating stories of how earth and people came to be. There also are fictionalized versions that have been well researched and are very close to the anthropological fact. If you seek it you can find many different stories.

If you are wanting a Creation story that is TRUE to history, than you'll have to go with the Biblical record. The book of Genesis. All others records or stories can not be trusted.
If you want a Creation story that does NOT have to be TRUE or ACCURATE, then pick any one you want OUTSIDE of the Bible.
If it was me, go with the one that is true.
There is a song I often sing:
---Don't build your house on the sandy land,
don't build it too near the shore.
Well, it might look kinda nice,
but you'll have to build it twice,
you'll have to build your house once more.
You better build your house upon the rock.
Build a firm foundation on the solid rock,
so when the storms of life may come and go
the peace of God you'll know ---

The true creation story is the one involving the collision that formed the moon.
Be that as it may, a link with all known creation stories is below.
