What gets me is that even at the height of religious belief...I never had any problem believing in evolution.
I think the real issue is that one gets those people who fear that any concession to science is the start of the slippery slope to questioning and doubt. Well of course...it is ! And these people are not stupid and know that......so they simply block out anything and everything that might get them on that slippery slope.
It's really like a kid just sticking his fingers in his ears and going ' Nanananana.....I'm not listening'.
