Cultural theory is something completely different, and has nothing to do with museums installing explanatory exhibits regarding the Theory of Evolution.

From the Article

"One of the big misunderstandings, I think, is that a lot of people have stopped realizing that science is a secular activity," said Lance Grande. Field's $17 million, 20,000-square foot, "Evolving Planet" exhibit is slated to open on March 10, 2006.

Trying to change a misunderstanding about science, sounds like a cultural issue to me.

That one, or a few, persons want to correct a misunderstanding about science is not the what the great majority of scientists do for a living, nor does it characterize science. So, to say that the battle between ID proponents and evolutionary scientists is nothing more than a cultrual war (which you have asserted) miss-characterizes science.
