You should be more specific when you use the word "Christian."
Because the majority, or near majority, of the world's population defines themselves as Christian, it is logical that the scientific world is likewise a majority Christian population.
There is wide variance in Christian belief, and not all Christians are literalists. In fact, Christian literalism is largely a US southern phenomenon, and hardly a representation of Christianity as a whole.
As well, I hardly need you to explain "Christianity" or Christian belief to me, but when you attempt to explain such to others, you should be more specific in your explanation, such as "US evangelical Christians believe" this or that because you don't speak for all of Christianity, nor do your specific beliefs define Christianity.
As far as the articles are concerned, it is evangelicals, your wing of Christianity, who are trying to pass off Biblical theology, a literal interpretation, as "science" with your proposed teaching of intelligent design in the classroom.
Regardless of your opinion of the Theory of Evolution, theology is not science and science, ie. carbon dating, wholely discredits your belief that creation is is only 6 thousand, or 12 thousand years old or however old you guys are dating the world these days.
