Because the biological Theory of Evolution is the prevailing
religion of the Westen World today. So, people having hijacked it as a natural science try to use it to justify everything from gay marriage to scaling back or eliminating welfare programs.

Now, as for a 'creator,' what the other guy said: why bring it up? It has nothing to do with this in the slightest. Evolution is a fact.

Yes, biological evolution is a fact. As in frequency of gene expression and mutation of inputs in a gene.
The descent with modification proposition is not a fact. There is much evidence for it but there can be much evidence to put an innocent man in prison too. But the descent with modification paradigm is the dominate biological paradigm of our time because it helps give us explanations for the similarities and differences in creatures on earth.
