<<So I think one of the most surprising findings has to do with the relationship between understanding the basics of evolutionary theory and accepting it as our best account of the origins of human life.>>

No, evolution is NOT ANY ACCOUNT OF THE ORIGINS OF HUMAN LIFE. So to the extent than anyone on either side thinks this is the case it's a big mistake AND a source of 'belief' in the wrong thing.

They do. And many of the folks telling them that are not fundamentalist Christians.
