I can't think of any creationists i've interacted with who violate that rule. Do any creationists on SW want to make the case that they understand well the evidence for evolution and an old earth but still reject it?

I've heard many scientific explanations as to how everything came into existence, but every single one ends with "Where did ..... come from?" Every single one.
I'm still open to hearing about the science that supersedes the theory of creation. Do you have one? And it better be simple, I'm old and tired.

Sure. And the difference between science and faith is that science leaves that as an open question while faith inserts an answer which is unjustified, untestable, unfalsifiable and has no more explanatory power than any other faith claim in that arena. That doesn't fill me with confidence, you know?
Anyway, that's a bit of a tangent to the actual subject of this post because Evolution explains how life on this planet diversified, not how the universe began. This thread is about what kind of people are denying the science of evolution.
I'd be happy to get into a discussion about the evidence and whether that data is better accounted for using a creation model or an evolutionary model because that would solve at least the issue of being uniformed ( if indeed you are) .
Most Christians do, these days. When i reference Creationism i am referring to the people who believe that life was created at about the same time as described in Genesis and generally adhering to a young earth.
Those people can, as a general rule only claim two of the three labels listed in the OP.
@Pikachu That does not change in any way my original post, "Your theory is useless because it's false. I've known many people who are all three and more."
Many people, eh? How conveniently non-specific. You know many people who believe that evolution never happened who also well understand what evolution theory says?
Give one example from the many. What did they believe and why were you convinced that they were well informed on the subject and honest about what they knew?
