Look up Dr. Dobkins. A real radical on that subject.

I am. Both theories have problems.
Darwin was correct in believing that "Survival of the Fittest" is a valid concept. The problem begins when people extrapolate Darwin's works to argue religion, political causes, or social causes that go far beyond what Darwin was saying.
Creationism is a defense of traditional religious values. The problem is not the existence of God or divine intervention. The problem comes when individuals expect divine intervention to solve all of their problems.
Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, the leader of the world's Anglicans, stated his discomfort about teaching creationism, saying that creationism was "a kind of category mistake, as if the Bible were a theory like other theories." He also said: "My worry is creationism can end up reducing the doctrine of creation rather than enhancing it."... wiki
Extreme views do not always make a good essay. Voices of reason and moderation may be more important.

Outspoken?

I have a BSc in Palaeobiology.
If you need an evolution explanation then I could provide it.... and answer any questions that any idiot creationist could supply.
Your choice.

Ken Ham (creationism) and Richard Dawkins (evolutionism).

I suggest you check out the debates going on in the religion and spirituality section. (Society and Culture).
Just keep on refreshing the main questions page. There's plenty of people on both sides.
