I'm not holding my breath. I would not expect evolution to go away as I believe it does occur. I'm just not sure to what degree. I was just expressing an idea for thought.

I've also been thinking about your post from last night. I don't know that people are necessarily afraid of science. I think that many are afraid of misinterpretation of it though. I'm not saying that it has been. I'm not really convince either way. But I think many feel that there are areas where evolution is a bit sketchy and some leaps are made without a lot of evidence. Perhaps they believe other possibilities are being ignored in favor of making evidence fit ToE. Just another thought.

General it's a lack of knowledge of science and its method.There is a bias by some because they think it conflicts their faith and belief. Having a creationist, not of science, come into the lab and telling the scientist of his opinion of what should be method is akin to having the night janitor going into the operating room and telling a brain surgeon his opinion and what method he should use. Not that there is anything wrong with being a creationist, or janitor. They simply choose another path and education.
