I once worked for a PhD student in entomology (nematology) who did not believe in evolution. She was a devout Christian and rationalized the adaptiveness of organisms as microevolution and claimed that any long term large scale change is unlikely/impossible. Btw she got her doctorate.

So a woman who studies worms doesn't believe that macro-evolution is impossible. She worked hard and got her degree. I don't see a crisis here.

I never said there was a crisis. She certainly did work hard and get her degree.

I was just pointing out that there are people in the biological fields who deny evolution.
