With the two opposing forces, it is extremely hard to find subject matter to which both thoroughly agree upon. Considering that if you pull for creationism, you must ignore surmounting scientific information against creationism. This applies for evolution as well, if you agree with the theory of evolution, you must ignore a religion thousands of years old. This is the reason that representatives from both sides simply turn a cold shoulder to the opposition and continue believing which is correct. There are attempts from creationists to adopt the idea of genetic mutations, but only to the extent that they were placed there by God that changed the species.
Why must one disregard science in the name of religion, or become unaffiliated with the church due to agreeing with scientific evidence supporting evolution? Some religious people now have come to believe that God did create the earth, but through evolution has developed life as we now know it. So stating that God created the process of evolution and that he created the earth does dispel a lot of the conflicts amongst the debaters. In this manner, people may still keep their faith and ideas on evolution, without being devout to one or the other.
