A fundamental problem that many Christian conservatives have (not necessarily all Christians, as I always believed in the theory of evolution when I was active in the faith) is that many/most don't believe in the TOE. If you honest and truly believe that a man was created out of dirt, and a woman was created out of the rib of that first man...and that is why/how ''marriage'' came to be, with one man and a woman ...then, you will have very archaic views as to homosexuality, etc. Creationists more than likely, will not accept homosexuality, because you really can't accept homosexuality as 'normal,' if you believe that God created one man, one woman to procreate, etc. So, it's not just a matter of someone being a bigot, but rather their entire understanding of biology is fucked up at its core.
For lack of a better phrase. lol
To understand science, and the fundamentals of biology, one has to denouce Creationism, and most Christian conservatives believe in Creationism. Even if some claim to believe in the TOE, they can't believe it completely and fully, because there are too many tenets that contradict either school of thought.
