The problem I have in dubbing a person who accepts the ToE a "scientist" or "biologist" is that the terms convey the impression that their bearers take an active role in "science" or "biology" -- typically they are reserved for members of (the) profession.

Although it defies our penchant for one-word labels, it would circumvent the propagandist overtones somewhat to simply refer to "evolution supporters" or "proponents." No?
