Do any 'leading/accomplished' scientists support young earth theory?

[Justtristo]

I prefer in this to see what creationist work gets published in the peer reviewed journals, rather than look at their credentials (lack therefore) of these creationists.

So I would ask what creationist stuff has been published in the scientific peer reviewed journals? None. That why Creation Ministries International and Answers in Genesis have started their own "peer review" journals. Because the peer review process acts quite effectively as crank filter, when it comes to the sciences.
