I think it's a great idea to include Evolution/Creation position statements in the user profiles. I'm a bit busy these days, but I'll put it on the list.
As long as I'm posting let me mention that I'm busy enough that I'm stretched a little thin in my moderator role in The Great Debate forum right now. Hopefully Larry, moderator for Topical Discussion, can cover, but I knows he's busy, too. Everyone, please send me email if you have any concerns about possible guideline violations as I always check email daily.
Oh, and I could use a better Creationism glossary for the website, and I think adding a Bible dictionary is a good idea, too. If anyone knows of some good ones let me know via email.

I think the majority [of evolutionists] are simply looking for an answer where it cannot be found, simply put, they want to be able to see God to believe in him.
Acceptance of the theory of evolution is not a rejection of God. A great many scientists hold deep and sincere religious beliefs. Most probably see science and religion as dealing with different realms. Few outside of evangelical Christianity take a literal interpretation of the Bible, but acceptance of a young earth and rejection of evolution is much more widespread than fundamentalism.
You were born during the administration of a US president who once said, "Well, it is a theory. It is a scientific theory only, and it has in recent years been challenged in the world of science - that is, not believed in the scientific community to be as infallible as it once was." Reagan was echoing feelings on this topic that resonate strongly throughout American culture.
