I agree with @SkovandOfMitaze that for something to be true, it doesn’t have to be practically applicable in all disciplines. I have lots of colleagues who are YEC and have no trouble with conscious cognitive dissonance with how they work from day to day. However, as you get more into research and really look at what even primary care are doing, common descent and evolution become more and more evident. Also, as time goes on, evolution just makes way more sense to me as I’m aware of the science of what I read about in my work.
In another discipline, Glenn Morton trained as YEC and had to drop it as he learned more of his work in searching for petroleum. He had to admit there was nothing that helped him from a YEC perspective in his work, whereas all the evidence fit an old, old earth.
Thanks.
