Contradictory beliefs
Many creationists do tend to believe into "fine tuning" arguments,
whereby the world is finely tuned for human existence, and just slight changes would make life impossible.
​
They also tend to believe that world was vastly different at the time of the alleged great flood, but was perfectly fit for human existence at that time.
​
They seem oblivious to the apparent contradiction between these views.

Re: Contradictory beliefs
They are using the book of Genesis to determine age.

Re: Contradictory beliefs
"Rational" is a relative term. What's irrational to you might be rational to somebody else.
