For the typical YEC follower who does not have a working knowledge of geological processes this is understandable. But for the young-earth leaders such as those who work for Answers in Genesis or the Institute for Creation Research who are tasked with providing expert answers about how to interpret science within the young-age paradigm one expect more. It is especially troubling that these experts are often unaware, or at least seem uninformed, of the challenges that sites such as these present to their own theories.
