"Facts would work."
Again I ask you, on what grounds do you dispute the facts I presented? What was wrong with the polls? Hand waving them away is less than persuasive.
"Statistics are meaningless but useful."
Only if you're ignorant and can't understand what the poll said. What you are saying is that no matter what info I provided you with to back up my claim that most people in the USA who accept evolution are Christian, you would dismiss it a priori because according to you all statistics are meaningless. You therefore never asked me for the info in good faith; not really surprising I might add. You rejected it before I even provided it.
Again, I provided you with the info you asked for and you have done NOTHING to challenge that info on any substantial ground.
The "scientist" group would presumably include biologists and geologists. But it would also include persons with professional degrees in fields unrelated to evolution, such as computer science, chemical engineering, physics, etc.
*presumably*
How did they define scientist? How did they define Christian? Who determined who fit into which category? Where did they sample the people? Universtiy? Church? Big city? Little town? Are they sure people told them the truth? One can run survey's and do *studies* galore until one finds something that backs up his claim. Unless there is concrete measurements, like a population count, statistics are meaningless because they are too easily manipulated.
