I see a difference between Creationism and youth Earth Creationism, I favour the former.

You appear to be comparing evidence with belief/theory - I'm not a supporter of Creationism being taught in favour of or replacing science. In fact I don't know of anyone who had that at school (other than the essential atheist collective who will happily tell us the same tales of wild-eyed schoolmasters 'demanding' they believe every word of the bible.....).
