I should like to step in here and clarify that it is not all Christians that oppose the teaching of evolution. The Catholic Church positively embraces it and has acknowledged its veracity, including in personal messages from several Pontiffs.

What we have here is a failure to communicate.*

The right-wing, fundamentalist Protestant churches that have so much influence in the US are the ones railing against evolution. Not "Christians".
