Its pretty hard to find creatonists offline now.
I was discussing the whole thing with a extremely active theist(an archeologist doing his thesis on how some things represented on the bible were also described by some other cultures that were what we would describe as pagan now) and when I asked him about the possible conflict between his faith and his work his only reply was that he put his faith aside when it came to work and the part of the bible that describes how the universe started is just a tale to him.
It seems like believers in theistic evolution probably outnumber the creationists. But they are not driven the way creationists are to promote this. I wonder if your colleague will eventually abandon theism

They are still there according to polls. And they still regularly try to attack science education standards in various red states. But I think they are less likely to expose their views when outnumbered, as they often are on the internet.
Scientific theories go through a rigorous process just to get into textbooks. Why Creationists think they are immune to this scrutiny is beyond me. Its like they want to play life with the Godmode cheat on. Literally

Well, he made his choices. I didn't expect him to get banned for what he did here but it was apparently the last warning in a long list of warnings
