Win...when I worked for IMAX, I was told by management that they could not mention the age of the Earth or mention the word "evolution" in films if they wanted them shown in large parts of the south (fundamentalist areas). It is widely reported that Sarah Palin believes the Earth is less than 6,000 years old and that man and dinosaurs walked the earth at the same time. She has been given many opportunities to refute these perceptions of her and she has not. My wife's best friend from high school has a masters degree and is married to a high school biology teacher. She firmly believes the Earth is less than 6,000 years old. I have read that as much as 35% of Americans believe this.
I find that hard to believe those figures, but I know that some do exist. I guess that I just wanted you to be aware that very well respected Scientists make compelling arguments for creation without conflicting with science.
Yes...there seems to be more and more.
