The adjective creationary ought to be added to the active core vocabulary of every educated English-speaking person so that it can then be used alongside the corresponding adjective evolutionary. People who know other languages other than English can also use their version of this same adjective. (German/Swedish: kreationär/evolutionär; Norwegian: kreasjonær/evolusjonær; Danish: kreationær/evolutionær; French: créationnaire/évolutionnaire; Polish: kreacyjny/ewolucyjny; Czech: kreační/evoluční; Slovak: kreačný/evolučný; Dutch: kreationaire/evolutionaire; Afrikaans: kreasionêre/evolusionêre). I encourage you to learn this excellent word and then pass it on to others.
