I think that the noise being made by the religious right is a death
rattle. The Universe is not going to magically become 6,000 years old,
and they know it. Mainstream Christians, both Protestant and Catholic,
have long since come to terms with the fact that the Universe is about
14 billion years old, and the Earth about 4.5 byo. The religious right
will not be able to undo evolution. They see themselves as becoming
more and more marginalized, and they are circling the wagons -- but the
circle is closing in on them.
