The problem is this article starts with the false premise that creationist actually want to understand and want to seek the truth.

It's only a problem if you consider young earth creationists to be the only creationists, and they aren't.

It's logically consistent to believe in the facts of science and the bible. Many do.

Amen to that.

“It’s logically consistent to believe in the facts of science and the Bible. Many do.”

Count me in on that! I remember my old man years ago talking to a guy he had built a house for and later became friends with. A Dr. Robert Page, inventor of radar in WWII. Dr. Page was very active in Bible studies, etc.. My old man (also a big Bible study guy, etc.) asked him once “So, don’t you ever have problems trying get some of the stuff in the Bible to fit in with your scientific view of the world”.

Dr. Page replied something to the effect of “No. Actually, the more I learn about our world from science, the more confident I am that there is a Creator.”

Although, like me, I’m pretty sure that when Dr. Page spoke of a Creator he was NOT thinking of the 6,000 year type of creation.

That's a stumbling block if you are looking for Truth. Using logic to understand The Supernatural is a sure way of being deceived. Everyone's logic is different but there is only One Truth. As far as 'many do' - it's confirmation of the Word of God - only a remnant will be saved. God is The Creator - if HE said 6 days it's six days. God deals in the Supernatural and man deals in logic to undertand the supernatural. It ain't gonna happen. Man's ego is more important to him than God's Word.
