One interesting case is Kent Hovind. I actually feel sorry for the guy because he appears to be suffering from some sort of mental illness. After he was convicted for tax evasion and spent multiple years in prison because of it he still won't admit that he was convicted of tax evasion. If you want to really go down the rabbit hole, you can Google "Kent Hovind denies tax evasion". It's a really scary look at what full on denial looks like.
There seems to be a syndrome associated with
creationism. Some are worse off than others, but
there is a common thread. Denial / inability to accept
any responsibility for any error is a big part of it.
The ones who set out to exploit them are a somewhat
different group, tho it includes true believers.
So it seems to me.
