Because they are idiots. Look at Earl's answer. He has so much misinformation, it is almost living proof that our education system is failing some people.

Religious *fundamentalists* don't believe in evolution for a few reasons (that I can think of).
1.) They are fanatically dogmatic. If the "good book" said that the sun sets in the east they would believe it despite the evidence to the contrary.
2.) They don't understand what evolution is. When you're on shaky ground instinct pushes you towards the safe and comfortable space. For creationists the safe and comfortable place is the bible.
3.) They have been hijacked by a right-wing group of political activists whose primary goal seems to be to Talibanize the US. By "teaching the controversy" and using other deliberately misleading and intellectually dishonest tactics, groups like the Discovery Institute are dumbing down this country. They are trying to make all institutions toe the line and come under the authority of the Christian religion.

What's evolutions hard evidence. DO YOU HAVE A VIDEO OF A BEAR TURNING INTO A WHALE.
DO you have a video of a lizard becoming a bird. Show us your Truman Show. We want to see the process. We don't want speculation.
We want a SCIENCE TEACHER to put a Lizard into a cage and show us over the course of 20 weeks how it becomes a cat or bird.
Now if you can't do that, then you can't make BROAD statements that require FAITH, for FAITH is religion!
You can't establishe African Killer Bees change on their own. If the BREED with AMERICAN BEES then that is BREEDING not evolution.
Evolution is internal change due to external events
BREEDING is cross genetics.
Genetics is a valid science.
Evolution is not, it is a theory. Most universities don't grant degrees in evolution, but they do grant them in biology and or genetics
You can document SOME things
BUT when you try to say MAN CAME FROM APE you are talkinig RELIGION. You are talking a LEAP OF FAITH YOU CANNOT PROVE anymore than a religious person can PROVE GOD
This bull hockey about 328 PLANETS being disovered around other stars is bull hockey UNTIL the day we send a probe and SEE IT FOR OUR OWN EYES
IF, in fact, the PROBE shows NOTHING, then SCIENCE has to go back to the drawing board.
Science is about POSITIVE, CONCLUSIVE, REPEATABLE PROOF
It's about emperical data
Evolution is one of the SOFTEST sciences out their, far behind Clinical Psychology, Meterology, Seismoloy.
Biology, Chemistry, Newtonian Physics are hard sciences with rules, laws, math.

Things do evolve yes, although not from apes to man, not from one species or creature to another, but one species, one human ethnic group, etc. can evolve within itself over time...and I DO NOT even slightly believe for one second that this world was created by some ''big boom'' or big bang or whatever that theory is. I think man constantly has to feel in charge, as if we run the universe...so scientists try to come up with answers as to how all the magnificent things in this world came about..and its just not feasible. There is something much greater than all this, God.

Because some people have been told that evolution disproves God, contradicts the Bible, etc. (see the first answer). Sadly, they feel the need to choose one or the other, and of course many people will choose God.
Far more people would accept evolution if it was better explained that evolution does not contradict the Scriptures or disprove God.

Because for some reason they don't think God could have still had creation with these beings even though it doesn't state exactly what Adam and Eve and looked like in the Bible. I would think there were more important things to argue about, but eh, whatever.

The "creationists" fear that evolution somehow disagrees with the Bible. Personally I don't understand why these people can't see that even though evolution is a proven fact they can't see that God or a supreme creator could still have had a hand in it.

"so if jesus is real why doesnt truthfully everyone have confidence in him?" you comprehend ok they're only going to pass on a rant approximately "freewill" to that. My biology professor says that the thank you to argue against a concept is to renowned extra approximately it than the guy who's protecting it. so a techniques, Christians fail miserably at this, as a replace determining on arguments so vulnerable and ignorant that one can desire to besides no longer pay any interest to them.

They mistakenly believe it is only a theory. It's a fact that species evolve and theory as to what mechanisms are involved in the evolutionary process.

God's yearly time frame of years is plainly different from scientific man's time frame of millions of years. Creation is of God. We are not suppose to have all the answers to everything. God has all of the answers. Mayb we are suppose to remain meek and mild in the face of God. Just a thought.
