Isn't it curious. I've seen many stories from people who turned away from creationism and accepted science after they stopped simply believing what others told them and looked at the evidence themselves. I've never seen one story about anyone who turned away from science to creationism because the evidence told them so. The closest I can think of is Kurt Wise, but he's the first to admit that he believes the bible despite the evidence, not because of it.
Can anyone point me to a scientist who turned from science to creationism because that's where they believed the evidence led them?
Ironically, Answers in Genesis only just this past week featured yet another
poster boy for "I Have Seen The Light
TM!", purportedly documenting
Frantiek Vyskočil's conversion from atheistic science to Biblical creationism.
Needless to say, the article is chock-full of misrepresentations of evolution, along with the usual personal incredulity and creationist buzzwords ("amazing complexity", "blind chance", "true science", etc.) that go with it.
