I know what you're referring to. I was thinking of the comments that creationists reject all science, which they don't. And there is a difference between young earth creationists and old earth creaionists. The latter aren't in that category.

As a YEC, I don't reject science either. What I remain highly skeptical about is folks claiming absolute scientific proof w/o regard to the numerous stated (and more frequently unstated) assumptions that allow for their conclusions.
Look closely enough at the things that are claimed as 'proven', you should see a pattern of ignoring the scientific method. The old earth/universe dating methods include assumptions like uniformitarianism.
Uniformitarianism is the best reason to reject the global warming crisis. It's even more ridiculous to think that things (i.e. radio isotope decay rates) have always remained constant over thousands (let alone millions/billions) of years.
