Evangelical Christianity in its non-denominational forms for the most part.

Catholicism will not make up its mind because it cannot afford to alienate any more of its verbal adherants.

Mainline protestants like Presbyterians, Lutherans, Methodists, etc. have generally surrendered on all fronts to coexist or make peace with secular humanism.

It is the non-denominational evangelicals and reformed churches that are key supporters of special creation.

Actually, the Catholic church has learned over the centuries the futility of pitting fallible human interpretation of scripture over and above the truth that is accessible to everyone through science.

No more witches and heretics tortured an burned. No more embarrassing admissions of error. It is, after all, the prideful interpretation that is the source of the error.

But it's a scientific controversy, really. Teach the controversy!
