What's the collective noun for a group of creationists?

An "incompetence"?
An "infestation"?
A "luddism" (although that's being a bit mean to Luddites)

An "oxymoron".

Because they actively deny a science from which they are benefiting, because the rank and file consistently vote against their best interests, and because they will probably misunderstand that word to mean something like 'more moron than moron' which suits me fine.

I suspect TV ads are more on their mind and they'll think of Billy Mays (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_mays) and OxyClean, thus an OxyMoron is someone who doesn't believe in the cleaning and whitening power of anything "as seen on TV", or other forms of mass brain-washing. Or perhaps a Klansman with a less-than sparkling clean white robe due to lack of belief in the power of the magic OxyKleen.
