What about creationism. It's a senseless faith-based, proof-lacking, antiscientific, antirational belief impulsed mostly by the fear of death and the need of the promise of a never-ending existence.

I would assume it's because creationism necessitates a supreme being, who they use as a crutch to deal with death?

Not precisely. Creationism is a desperate cry for everything in the universe to have been made with an ultimate purpose; having us as it's center. If the universe was created with such a purpose, then the idea of an eternal life becomes much more likely.
