Wait, what?
You realize when Evolution was first proposed and for years and years afterwards it was 'out of the box' thinking given the stranglehold that religion had on the scientific community in regards to free thinking.
The very concept of asking questions that would disagree with the religious stance was considered 'blacklisted'.
Clinging onto Creationism as an explanation for the world is akin to maintaining that the world is actually flat. Sure it takes guts, but it also take a complete blind eye to science and logic.
