I'll skim it over. Creation Science generally doesn't interest me, and I'm always surprised when I hear about creation museums opening. I've never ever ever in my life met a person who is an actual creationist and believes that the earth was created 6000 years ago. Perhaps because I was brought up in the more liberal northeast (NJ) and have lived in NYC for 12 years? Who knows? But, like I've said, I don't think I've ever met anyone who's believed in creationism. It seems like such a foreign concept to me.
