"Attacks? For example?...Some of the greatest scientists in world history have been creationists."

Just look in this thread one can clearly see attacks on both sides. Lately inteligent design (a clear ruse for creationism) has been widely used in both political and religious areas as a legit science. however that is not the topic on hand here in this thread. last you are correct that some scientist are or have been creationists, but waht has not been said is that they had no expertise in evolution or areas of evolutionary focus (molecular biology, evolutionary biologist etc.)
