Evangelists and anti-science creationists always say God created everything, and evolution is a false doctrine. One forum member here on AF claimed "Humans don't create, they produce", and Ray Comfort once said "we can only modify what God has already given us."

Well, by "God's creation", what precisely do they mean? For example, a painting is a creation in a certain sense. An intelligent mind dipped a brush in a pool of paint and painted the pictures using the brush and pretty colors.
But I think creationists mean something different. A painter created a painting using tools (brush, paints, board, etc.). If "humans can't create, they produce", then only God can create without tools. So apparently God created life and the world with magic. What exactly did God do? Did he or she wave a magic wand and POOF it all appeared? Did God shoot electricity out of his fingers like a Sith lord from Star Wars?
Regardless of how God used his or her magic to create life and the world, everyone knows that magic does not exist. So.....
