Yes, you have to be open to more than one "interpretation" of the evidence present in the natural world. The evolutionary interpretation is a construct based on an arbitrary assumption, ie, circular reasoning. You assume, baselessly, evolution, then extrapolate billions of years on top of that, then interpret the physical evidence through this lens, without questioning the lens first off.
The creationist interpretation IS supported by observation of the evidence, and IS based on something non-arbitrary, the Word of God.
Imagine through divine inspiration God gave you complete understanding of how the universe, life on Earth, and human beings came to be. But you only had the vocabulary of a bronze age shepherd. You could not have expressed that knowledge better than the author of Genesis.
