Why do Christian creationists keep debating with scientists?

It seems to be much more prevalent with Christians sects rather than other religions. What’s the point? Surely faith is required, not objective scientific proof? Religion attempts to answer ‘why’? and real science only asks ‘how’? They are orthogonal, unless you want to proscribe what your God is, or isn’t allowed to do? How arrogant would that be? “You’re my God, and I have book that binds you to a specific method of ruling the Universe, stick to it or else!” A lot of creationists create wiggle room by calling into question the translation of the Bible from the original languages. How come? God gives the original text in perfect form and then doesn’t care how it get translated?
