Why can't some Christians accept Evolution?

A better question would be: How can some christians call themselves "christians" and still believe in evolution?

In the very beginning of the Bible there are two stories that tells us how the Earth and everything on it was created. On one story humans were the last lifeforms created, on the other less famous one humans were the first to be created. So by saying that they believe in evolution they would say that they don't believe in the second story.

Now, a better question would be: How can people still be christian even when science and pure moral has proven the Bible to be completely incorrect?

Hmmmm....Completely incorrect? Also what stories are you referring to when it says Man was created first and Man was created last?

I don't know what it's called in english but it's the first and second chapters of the Bible. And maybe I should clarify: Man was not created absolutely first in the second chapter, but before every other animals.

The reason to why the two stories contradict each other is because when the Bible was written there was two tribes with one "creation-story" each, and in order to unify their beliefs they couldn't exclude any of their stories.

Yeah, it's been a while since my religion teacher went through this so my memory is kind of foggy... But that's pretty much it.
