This baffles me. I believe most Christian religions(definitely Catholics and most Protestants) embraced the evolution decades ago. So who is debating it and why?

Not sure if they constitute "most protestants" but the majority of so called evangelical christians are quite hostile to the scientific reality of evolution.

Ah now I see. It looks like the Fundamentalist–Modernist controversy is an US thing - it's unusual to find Protestants in Europe that would reject the evolution.
