But no room for an alternate view is exactly what creationists enjoyed prior to the 1800's. There was not any major funding for evolution, and evolutionists were widely ridiculed. Why did things change anyway?
Because Darwin was right to some degree. Before Darwin, the popular creation model was the lawn model where creatures were suspected to have been created exactly like they were. Then we found out differently and the lawn model was changed to the orchard model that allows for change. But the pendulum swung too far and is not allowed to swing back to where two models can compete head to head.
