I doubt it would have made any difference, to be honest. I think that to have any credibility with the other side in that debate you first have to demonstrate that you 'get' fundamentalism, and the article doesn't really aim to do that.
There are books for the fundamentalist Christian which aim to show that evolution (and non-literal interpretations of the Bible) are compatible with divine authorship of the scriptures, but they are not easy to get hold of, at least the ones I know of.
An interesting reversal of the situation among Christians, who debate the extent to which you have to earn respect among non-Christians before being able to win them over.
