Because the believers of fairy tales recognize how important it is to have science on ones side. They would like to claim it for themselves (and continuosly attempt to do so), but, there are these nagging issues to deal with first.
Most of the creationists you'll see around here practically worship at the altar of science. It is inconceivable to them that their concept of god (or narrative of god) could be in error. So wherever there is a disconnect they claim that the science presented is incorrect. Notice, however, that they would like to claim that some other scientific principle somehow "disproves" it, or that E by NS, for example, is just a massive conspiracy. They need science to be "true" as much as they need their religious beliefs to be "true".
That's the secular influence on faith right there. You won't find a single one of them with even a smidgeon of the faith of their predecessors.
