<You realize that passage was by Tania Lambrozo being interviewed in New Scientist. >

Sounds like an interesting person doing great work in psychology....yes. That's the point... folks link evolution to 'no god'.

In the long run the truth reveals itself... wonder who will be more shocked, scientists (in general) or wacko creationists?

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

Sure... I listed a WHOLE BUNCH of them (scientists). They aren't rejecting "evolution" that I can see however.. they are rejecting parts of what is loosly called "modern synsthesis"... I reject a lot of it to. We've discussed that at length.

Further, and back to the main thrust... I'm not suprised that "eduction" in evolution doesn't always lead to acceptance in those people... remember the quote I put forward by (someone or other a while back)... I'll paraphrase:

"Things don't become accepted by telling them about them... they bocome accepted when those that have previous beliefs die".
