Yes and no. I suspect that you are taking a jab at creationists, and while they do hold to a firm belief in design and purpose, there is not the same sense of catastrophism that is attached to it. Creationists do not tend to fear the threat of the chaos monster who will engage in a wholesale "uncreation" upon its release. Yes, there is a strong sense of divine judgment, but this is retribution, not collapse.
