Not all, but most Creationists wouldn't be able to do that if they tried. The same could be said about most Atheists, if they performed this test in reverse. While the beliefs (and/or lack thereof) are worlds apart, the commitment is somewhat similar. For example: That silly feeling you get after reading the Book of Genesis is the same feeling a Creationist would get after studying the Theory of Evolution. We'd both feel it's complete nonsense, and wouldn't take it seriously enough.
