If I have a big, fast computer and I simulate a universe by randomly defining a set of rules and then hit "go" over-and-over-and-over again, if life arises in one of them is that creationism? Isn't it more correct to say I am exploring the space of all possible universes to see which ones generate life?

Both statements would be true.
When I multiply 5 and 6 am I creating 30?
