"Why are there so many overly religious Christians in the United States?"
It's a stupidity problem, a brainwashing problem, and a terrible science education problem.

"What is the difference between a creationist and a young earth creationist?"
A young earth creationist thinks the entire fucking universe was magically created 6,000 years ago. They really are that insane.
An old earth creationist agrees with the actual age of the earth, 4.5 billion years, but they still think every species was magically created by their magic fairy.
We also have what is called "theistic evolutionists". These morons agree evolution is true, but they pollute this science with their childish idea that their god fairy invented or used or guided evolution, and that's bullshit. There is nothing theistic about any branch of science, especially evolution.
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
