"What Are Evolutionists So Afraid Of?"

RE: "What Are Evolutionists So Afraid Of?"
This seems to be the RCC position on evolution:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Ch..._evolution

Quote:
Catholic schools in the United States and other countries teach evolution as part of their science curriculum. They teach the fact that evolution occurs and the modern evolutionary synthesis, which is the scientific theory that explains why evolution occurs. This is the same evolution curriculum that secular schools teach. Bishop Francis X. DiLorenzo of Richmond, chair of the Committee on Science and Human Values, wrote in a letter sent to all U.S. bishops in December 2004: "... Catholic schools should continue teaching evolution as a scientific theory backed by convincing evidence.

Here is a link about other religions:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceptance_...ous_groups

These are the groups with the lowest acceptance of evolution:
Hist. Black Protest. 38%
Evang. Protestant 24%
Mormon 22%
Jehovah's Witness 8%

I'm not sure what the first group is.

So it's only the fringe groups who have a real problem with it, all US as far as I can tell.
