Yes, I can well appreciate that. The big flap over evolution and religion was resolved by the end of the nineteenth century, in England. Most Christians do in fact accept evolution. The only one exception is the American Bible Belt. That shows the sad fact of how behind the times America can be. The problem is that Europe, not America, use to be the leading intellectual and scientific world. While research and great debates went on in Europe over evolution and other major scientific matters, we, in America, were busy with other matters, conquering the frontier, etc. We really had some catching up to do. Not until the end of WW2 did we emerge as the major scientific Mecca of the free world. Some of us Americans still have some catching up to do.It has somewhat changed the way I see the Bible, but then my (European) Christian school taught evolution anyway, so meeting for the first time the American/Christian rejection of evolution was very strange.
