I think creation stories are awesome because they're all true. They don't have to make sense. It doesn't really matter what actually happened - things can still be true without having ever occurred. Part of being human is believing things that are completely contradictory.
The problem I have always had with creation stories is: "What happened before? X, Y or Z created things, but who created X, Y or Z?" I am a scientist, so The Big Bang & Evolution are what I need to believe in. That doesn't mean that the other versions are any less true, it just means that they didn't happen.
