I'm not for one moment saying that evolution contradicts Islam, or indeed Christianity.
Creationism necessarily implies an incompetent, deceitful God, and this in my opinion is hardly consistent with either faith.
It does of course imply stupid deceitful followers, who resort to moronic lies to try and stop kids asking awkward questions.
There is nothing wrong with not believing in the big bang, evolution or the law of conservation of angular momentum.
It's why you don't believe something that matters.
However Christian and Moslem evolution deniers seem to differ in causes. From what I hear, some young Moslems seek to express their identity by rejecting bits of "western" culture. They do this loudly, and teachers don't want the fight.
Although evolution is like most modern science the inception of white men, again like most modern science it has clear roots in Arab/Moslem scholarship. Long before Darwin, Arabs had clear ideas that clearly implied some form of natural selection, and had worked out the Earth was very old and round. Look up "firmament" to get the official Christian view of the Earth.
But that argument cuts no ice, Brits aren 't taught about Arabs much, maybe they should but would probably get shot at by Zionists and Christians. Once you start letting religion into your schools, there's no easy way out.
It's a sad local phenomenon, due largely to the way Brits pander to superstition, rather than confront it.
