Well yes if you use a very broad definition of a word then you'll capture pretty much everyone except atheists or agnostics. Not very useful for this discussion.

In this context creationist (to me at least) either refers to someone who believes that the earth is 6000 years old, or someone who believes that God directly created life by poofing man and animals into existence as they are. Basically rejecting common descent.
