"We are vocal here because biblical creation is the bedrock on which conservatism is founded. "

The belief in Biblical inerrancy (itself acceptable), additionally evolved (od perhaps devolved) into the concept of inerrancy of the literal interpretation of some cherry-picked passages of the Scriptures(*), is indeed expressed by some Protestant sects. There is conservatism also outside these sects, believe it or not.

(*) Want to discuss about Biblical foundations of geocentrism and the belief in the flat Earth?

I want to clarify one thing. I am not attacking here the BELIEF in Young Earth creationism. There is a simple way of reconciling the belief with science: it was completely within God's capabilities to create the Earth 6,000 years ago in 6 days, and for reasons known only to Him, also create the particular isotopic ratios, strata of fossils etc. that suggest a much longer history. Feel free to believe or not.

I am protesting the "creationist science" quackery.
