The religious problem with evolution

[Doubting Thomas]

1) Why not attack other scientific theories, like relativity or gravity or plate tectonics?

Because gravity or plate tectonics don't contradict the Book of Genesis. However, they do attack the Big Bang theory and abiogenesis, and even conservative Christian nutjob Andy Schlafly has attacked the Theory of Relativity, saying (I swear I'm not making this up) that it is a liberal plot in order to get more women to have abortions:

Some liberal politicians have extrapolated the theory of relativity to metaphorically justify their own political agendas. For example, Democratic President Barack Obama helped publish an article by liberal law professor Laurence Tribe to apply the relativistic concept of "curvature of space" to promote a broad legal right to abortion.
