Poll: Creationism Trumps Evolution

NEW YORK, Nov. 22, 2004

(CBS) Americans do not believe that humans evolved, and the vast majority says that even if they evolved, God guided the process. Just 13 percent say that God was not involved. But most would not substitute the teaching of creationism for the teaching of evolution in public schools.

Support for evolution is more heavily concentrated among those with more education and among those who attend religious services rarely or not at all.

There are also differences between voters who supported Kerry and those who supported Bush: 47 percent of John Kerry’s voters think God created humans as they are now, compared with 67 percent of Bush voters.

You're giving the thumbs up to the fact that the better educated people believe in evolution, I hope.

note that 13% say God was not involved

this is probably the number of atheists, or close to it (I didn't know there were so few...)

most theists, I beleive, think that God was involved, but that He used evolution (to greater or lesser digree)

Why don't fundies stop believing in something like gravity? If they did that, we'd soon be rid of them.

Don't worry. They will eventually go away. Jesus will one day be thought of the same way Zeus and Poseidon are. I just hope I'm around to see such a day.

While they might be misguided on this particular issue if they believe in Creationism, this is still a great sign that Religious Roots are alive and well in this country, and has not decayed as Europe has.

Yeah, things have really gone downhill in Europe since they stopped burning witches.

Would that they should live in a Christian country.

Ignoring the fact that your point is biased, incomplete, and just plain loony in itself, what you have just now agreed is that:

1) CBS is telling the truth, that the more educated one is the less likely they believe in Creationism or;

2) CBS is lying, in which case the report is crap and makes the point of copy/pasting it moot.

How can you not believe in evolution, I mean it isn't like there's a lack of ****ING PROOF!!!

I mean, it wasn't completely silly before the discovery of DNA, but after that you have to be a 24 carat moron not to believe in evolution.

Don't worry, the religious void in Europe shouldn't last. Since they have abandoned the Christian ideals of the family, birthrates have plummeted, and Moslems should soon be able to set up Islamic Republics there.

I guess that means that Americans are not believers anymore, since our birthrate is declining too.

Why must you hate America so?

And let's not forget that there is a such thing as biased education. Practically all public education is biased towards the left. It's no wonder why our young people are so leftist.

No. They just want to open shops and become doctors.

And you are ignoring the obvious fact about immigration: it takes on average about one generation for most immigrants to dump tradition in favour of fun and happiness.

What's leftist about evolution? The only people who have tried to put the theory into political practice were right wing people like Hitler.

I suppose Hitler is a leftist now....

I'll take option two. I think CBS is lying about one point just to make religious people sound stupid. CBS apparently believes that left-educated folks are more educated than those who got a sensible education.
