Very few creationists, at least in well connnected, generally literate communities exposed to modern science, totally deny evolution. Otherwise the effects of the fact that children tend to look like parents or grand parents but not identical would prove an awkward thing to account for. when challenged they might call these micro-evolution. What many deny are speciation through evolution, Because if speciation had indeed occurred on large scale, then the silence of religious tradition on the issue tend to imply religion mostly didn’t know jack shit.

Thank you for telling me what I just said. Very helpful.
