When one's core beliefs have no basis in logic or objective reality, it's simple to maintain consistency. All that's needed is the invention of some new concept to explain the discrepancy.

The world created in days -> but a "day" could be a million years. Evolutionary theory -> but <creator> is driving the evolution etc...
