In my opinion, they are taking advantage of people's ignorance for their own gain.

Ummm, is there a mechanism by which 'Mother Nature' controls evolution?

yes, and the supreme court and SEVENTY TWO Nobel Laureates agree...here is the link if you do not believe me.

Creationists come in different flavors. The 6-day biblical creation myth seems like nonsense to me but....
Would it surprise you to learn that Charles Darwin was a creationist? He believed that all species evolved from some original ancestor but he couldn't explain what that first ancestor evolved from. Darwin believed that the first living thing was created by a creator. Check out Darwin's "The Origin of Species" next time you hit the library.

No,not necessarily.I don't take a position on creation/evolution debate as a rule,but many creation scientists have PhD's in various sciences such as geology,geography,palentology and biology.Some are even dissenters from evolution.

The first concept of a higher power (one god) was that of Mother Nature!. I believe it was by Humans before we where called ”Homo Sapiens”. Females are the barer of life. Think about this, doesn’t it make more sense that god is a female "Barer of All Life" universal. Evolution is an adjustment to the environment (survival) based on time. Since Mother Nature controls evolution this would combine Science and Religion into one Philosophy of our origin.

You described Evolutionists. They tell you to believe in Evolution because it's a scientific theory. Yet it's so scientifically impossible that the chance of a Creationist becomes more likely.

Ya, but there are still actual snake oil salesmen.
The people in the alternative health and medicine fields are as bad and worse.
There's all kinds of ways to be deluded or venal in this old world

What gain would this be? They're ridiculed by the scientific community and often lose their jobs. Read "Monster" by Frank Perretti. Half the book's all about this kinda stuff.

I think they are delusional, not necessarily malicious. Some of these people actually believe this nonsense. So, I think most are sincere, albeit misguided.

Probably. Creation science is an oxymoron.
