Creationism is history
Or should be, but only in the "your history, baby" kind of quip that comes before the action hero blows it up.
The existence of creationism is a historical fact and that's exactly where I learned about it -- US History in HS.and belongs in history class, not science class.
What Darwin did (go on the Beagle, study pigeon breeding, examine the "tree of life", write his books) is history what he discovered (evolution) is a science.Why is it that, when Darwin does something, it's HISTORY, but when God does something, it's THEOLOGY?
The contents of "creationism" are theology, the study of its impact and generation by men is part of history.
TL;DR version: The actions of the proponents of the two ideas are part of history and are studied as such. The ideas that are propagated are not history. The creation idea is theology; the evolution idea is science. (Creation science and similar abominations are theology in pseudoscientific clothing.)
