Some people believe that evolution goes against their religion and choose not to accept the scientific notion.
Generally, religious reasons. That simple.
Although the evidence for evolution by natural selection is widely regarded as overwhelming, many people, because of their religious upbringing find it difficult to accept.
No. Many theists, including Christians, believe that evolution occurred. Belief in some sort of god and belief in evolution are not mutually exclusive. Some even believe evolution was guided by some divine entity such as God.
There is no theory of creation. The theory of evolution by natural selection explains much about the fact of evolution. The only significance to human society is that some people can not accept the real and modern world because of ideological constraints.
Absolutely. There aren't many scientists today that do not accept the theory of evolution, but yet many, many of them are religious.The group of people 'claiming' that evolution cannot coexist with religion are religious fanatics & evolutionist devotee's. Do not mind them.
Teachers are human and all humans have their own idea of how the world started. If it can't be proven, then people will rely on their own beliefs as truth.
People should not " believe in " evolution but accept that evolution, the change in allele frequency over time in a population of organisms, is fact. The also need to consider the theory of evolution by natural selection, which explains much about evolution, as one of the most well supported explanatory theories in science. Then they would, if they are intellectually honest, come to accept not only the fact of evolution but the theory of evolution by natural selection. " Believe in " is a term one uses when one can provide no supporting evidence for one's concepts and this does not include evolution and the theory of evolution by natural selection.

There are a number of these, however, as with evolutionary science, the majority believe in evolution. What is interesting is that a number of Hebrew scholars who believe in evolution acknowledge that Genesis teaches creation and 24 hour days in the Hebrew, even though they don't believe it.
Most Muslims I have heard about do not accept evolution or evolutionary theory.
Evolutionist, empiricist, scientist. Some may be tempted to include the word "atheist," but there are plenty of people who accept evolution and also believe in a higher power.
It depends. Some churches already believe that man is subject to evolution, but others strictly believe evolution is false and are unlikely to change their thoughts or beliefs at all
The overwhelming majority of scientists accept the theory of evolution by natural selection. Any scientists that do not accept the theory usually do so for religious reasons.
