   Not clear what your question means.  My understanding is in the U.S.   
   there is a schism among members similar to a schism in the general   
   population, between political/social conservatives and progressives.   
   How an individual identifies depends on the specific Church teachings   
   they prioritize.  Based on what I have read what Behe and Miller have   
   written, I would guess Miller is more progressive, while Behe is more   
   conservative.
