Source please? Keep in mind we're talking about scientists who graduated from real universities and whose field of interest is biology. Even if you'd narrow yourself down to the scientists in the US only, you'd never get 75%, let alone other countries where evolution is established theory and creationism is considered nonsense.

First of all half of those scientists have nothing to do with biological research. There are dentists, mathematicians, physicists, etc., not to mention some more esoteric fields like "Creationist Plant Physiologist".
Regardless of that, your lists consists of a 100 or so names. Considering there are hundreds of thousands, if not millions of scientists worldwide, your list makes up about 0.01% of the whole scientific community.
| quote: | | now if you look here there is a consise article on creationism and basically why some beleive in creation and others in evolution....... |
The article assumes that both creationists and evolutionists argue from the dogmatic perspective, which is not the case. It makes a lame attempt to justify bible as evidence, but it basically just portrays that people who are arguing creationism can't distinguish between factual evidence and dogmatic beliefs.

First of all, how old are you? I truly doubt you're much past your teens, so maybe you should just sit back and let the grown ups talk. Secondly, the peak of intelligence and reasoning is somewhere between 25 and 45 years of age. Older people are wiser up to the point where their brains start deteriorating. After that their wisdom becomes highly questionable.
Now, back to the point. What you said doesn't mean absolutely anything, because the majority of older scientists believe in evolution as well. You are implying an utterly fallacious idea, that scientists accept creationism as they mature, which is simply not true. Evolution has been a widely accepted theory for about a 100 years now and hippie revolution had nothing to do with it, especially since hippies didn't really care much about science. As a matter of fact, they were quite intent on limiting and bringing down some scientific achievments (nuclear power, for example).
