I have narrowed my creation vs. evolution topic down a considerable amount. The result is a more focused topic on why more individuals are siding with the evolutionary theory instead of creation. During some preliminary research, I found a few websites that will be very useful in further investigating my topic. The sites are listed and explained below.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution: This is a somewhat thorough explanation of what evolution is, which person created this theory and how it was derived. Wikipedia is the source of this article.
http://www.allaboutcreation.org/: This website thoroughly investigates all of the aspects of creation. Where does the idea originate; why do so many people believe in the idea; how can creation be applied to the scientific discoveries of today.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/editorials/2005-11-20-faith-edit_x.htm: This is an opinionative article published by USA Today, written by Charles C. Haynes. The article gives Haynes' opinion on how the abandonment of God (specifically creation) in public school systems has not effected anyone’s beliefs or mannerisms.

Dustin,
You have chosen a really interesting topic! I hear what you are saying in terms of creationism seeming to be a 'moot point' in terms of our education system. It is interesting that evolution seems to be taught to the exclusion of any other version, including creationism. I recently read a really interesting article about a 'divine framer', the article basically tied the theory of evolution together with a creationist point of view by stating that the 'prime mover' or force which began evolution, was in fact God. The argument was, that while God initiated evolution, we can't comprehend the timeframes involved and that what we call 7 days could have actually taken place over a millenia! I will look for the article, and send it your way if I find it again! Good luck.
