I guess I have some issues with the idea that there needs to be a "vs." typed between the two. I know other have said this, but they don't seem to compare to me.
Evolution is a theory that can be "proven" or "disproven" through the application of the scientific method. Creationism is a religious belief so "proof" and the scientific method are irrelevant.
If I believe that a man rose from the dead a couple of thousand years ago, or was born from a virgin, I am discounting the scientific method. That doesn't necessarily mean I'm wrong. It just means I'm making a choice about what to believe. Now, if I try to apply science to my religion, or religion to my science... I don't think I get peanut butter cups, if you know what I mean.
