I'm not sure what your point is. Yes, at one time they were. Even if they are today, I was giving you an example of a member of an Abrahamic faith, a priest, no less, who was not a creationist. Creationism is not a requirement of Christianity anymore. When I was a believer I did not believe in creationism (although I did not acknowledge that this meant the bible was failliable). Even then, there are some theories (albiet farfetched ones) that allow the account in genesis to be reconciled with an old earth and evolution.
