Not necessarily. It's not that they stay away from all that stuff, but when they hear conflicting evidence they say, "This is a lie!" and keep believing the lies they've been fed by their pastor.
I see it all the time with conservatives who keep watching Fox News and believing everything they say while ignoring or automatically poo-pooing anything which contradicts what they want to hear.
So it doesn't matter what scientific evidence anyone can show proving that evolution happens, they'll just keep being willfully ignorant and believe that all science is the result of evil Satanic atheists who are trying to disprove God's existence.
