Ok, lets turn this around: Why do Fundamentalist believe in such a weak god that is a poor engineer?
The rest of the universe is governed by a set of consistent, rational laws that allow the universe to run on full automatic. Why would God design biology to work different and require constant hands-on-control.
Creationists have a weak, stupid god that built a universe that requires constant tweaking. Their god is a poor engineer. It makes more sense that biology would work like the rest of the universe, self correcting, self regulating, and self modifying. Thus, His creatures can change as their environment changes. That is all evolution is, the plants and animals adapting to their changing environment (That is glorious!).
“The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Catholic (or other Christian), not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false.”
Saint Thomas Aquinas

Yes, and I am both a Geologist and a Methodist. ----- Two reasons, I see no conflict with Scripture and Science--only with the Bible INTERPRETATIONS of men who lived hundreds of yeas ago.(Like the fundys believe in) The Bible should be interpreted in terms of what we knot to be true TODAY. And Two, We are not allowed to use "God" and "religion" in the rules of the Science "Game"... Science is a "game" to see if we can answer questions using only observation, experience or experiment. To say "God did it" would be cheating, and not Scientific.
