A lot of christians in Norway and Europe in general believe in both. Evolution has even been defended by official members of the vatican.

Ex. >> Vatican Official Defends Evolution Against 'Useless' Creationism

In other words, the gap between religion and science seems much wider in the USA .. Where I'm at, I'd say the two coexist quite peacefully.

edit :

However, in Norway, christianity as a subject has been taken out of school. Now they teach "religion" instead where you learn about every major religion. It's working rather well, I think. I'll admit I wish other nations would do the same.
