I find it very odd, that these gargantuan rants exist. If creationism is bunkem and god knows nothing, then why worry?

Events like this are why we worry. Religious groups with no knowledge or understanding of the topic they are objecting to are the reason we worry and why we will continue to object.
Bishop Boniface Adoyo, the head of the 35 Kenyan evangelical denominations, is leading opposition to the exhibition. “I do not dispute that as humans we have a history, but my family most certainly did not descend from the apes,” he said. The bishop was invited to view the new Human Origins gallery before it opened this month, and said that he would call on his flock to demonstrate outside the museum if evolution was described as anything other than merely a theory.
“Bits of it are being disproved by scientists every day,” he said. “Yet it’s being taught in our schools to children - a theory being taught as fact.”
Not a single 'bit' has been disproved to date. This theory is in fact a body of facts, no wonder its taught as fact. Not only are we evolved from
apes, we are in fact still apes.
