it's actually interesting to track the "evolution" of Christian thought on evolution.. As times has gone by there is less denial of biological evolution, and less literal interpretation of the Bible (as it becomes less credible to an educated society).
Just like the idea of Heaven and Hell.. a few decades back Hell was all fire and brimstone, you'd be damned to eternal agony if you commited a mortal sin and didn't reprent. etc.. Now in mainstream Christianity Hell is more "an apartness from God", kind of like the old interpretation of purgatory.
I went to a Catholic highschool and even a lot of the priests didn't believe in a literal God in the traditional sense.
