Well, I guess it all goes back to the Scopes Monkey trials where a school fought against evolution. Since that time more and more evidence has built up to show it as fact. Now a small group of people founded the Discovery Institute to try to keep the idea alive of creationism. They also tried to bring it into the class room. That failed in a court of law so they rebranded Creationism to intelligent design. Two things to study more on this are the Wedge Document, and go to PBS and look for the Dover County documentary.
