The thing about creationism is that it's a polarizing thing; it makes people tend to align themselves along tribal lines, rather than actually assessing the arguments. Besides which, it's my opinion that biologists wasting their time arguing against creationism just gives legitimacy to a particular strand of American fundamentalist Christianity. It's irrelevant to most religion, and it's utterly, completely irrelevant to scientific discourse.
