Which expert would you trust? God was there. God told us what happened. I'm willing to take His word for it.
“Still”?
I consider Creationism to be logical and I consider Evolution to be too fantastic to believe. Both sides require faith, but Evolution requires more faith than I have.
So 78 percent believe that God is responsible for humans. The “how” varies.
Ahhh, glad to see the unbiased MSM assume that Christianity requires that one believe that the Earth is only 10,000 years old.

In many cases, Anthony Wiener comes to mind, man appears to have descended from monkeys.
Does anyone know who is responsible for coining the word “creationism”—?? It wasn’t by any chance Karl Marx, was it? Like, maybe the same day he invented the word “capitalism”—??
I’m 61, have believed in God my entire life, live in a nation BASED on God’s existence and teachings, and yet I have never thought of myself as a “creationist.” It’s not a word I would ever speak out loud.
“Creationism.” I could see living out the days remaining to me and never again using this word.
I don’t believe in Creationism.
Nevertheless I have some respect for it. Not because of its scientific credentials, but because unlike Anthropogenic Global Warming it is not an attack on my wealth and freedom.
AGW really pushed the bar way, way down in the West, completely debasing the word ‘science’ just as Lysenkoism did in the East.
So when it comes to left-wing critiques of Creationism, I have to retort that the left are the enemies of Science/Reason. Creationists are honestly wrong, while the AGW-supporters are dishonestly wrong.
Not sure why I need to believe humans began 10,000 years ago in order to believe God created the world.
“...about 40 think God created humans about 10,000 years ago”
Idiot!
A large percentage of creationists don’t buy the young earth theory!

Would love to see the breakdown by race. In my neck of the woods, black folk tend to be big believers in creationism, white folks not so much.
Where did they get these numbers from? A room full of liberal monkeys with a hand full God created people
Strawman to divide us.
hmmph...Science on MSNBC? contradiction in terms
Six out of ten choose not to consider (i.e. choose not to think [about]) where the universe came from. Ask any evolutionist how the universe got here, and you will only get insults in response.
The Global Warming gods and goddesses will not be happy about this report. Unless we send even more ‘love offerings’ to their prime oracle Al Gore we can expect even hotter weather on the East Coast next week.
When presented with a highly ordered complex universe it is only logical to believe that it is the result of intelligence of some sort. I believe that evolutionary processes occur but I also believe that evolutionary science is filled to the brim with subterfuge and religious fervor with a willingness to take a handful of bones or fragments of recovered dna and craft wild fantastic stories that are nearly wholly the product of the imagination not empirical research of a scientist.
Scientists who know better still insist on claiming human beings share 98% or better genetic commonality with apes which is at best misleading and at the worst a purposeful fraud. Human beings in particular have 2 less chromosomes than alleged nearest relatives. Chromosomal fusion has been used to explain this but even with that epigenetic gene modifiers controlling gene expression have shown than only as much as 60% of genetic expression is shared between human beings. Studies of gene expression in the human brain alone show that 90% of expression is up-regulated in comparison to apes. Also things like telomeres are much shorter.
I think my sentiment on the reliability of evolutionary science is captured by this quote:
“Chimpanzees share about 98 per cent of our DNA, but bananas share about 50 per cent, and we are not 98 per cent chimp or 50 per cent banana. We are entirely human and unique.” -Telegraph columnist Steve Jones
The key problem is the level of intellectual dishonesty and the desire of many scientists to present a degree of certainty on the exact nature of evolutionary processes that the evidence just does not support. We see the same thing across the board whether it be environmental science, sex science, etc. We unfortunately have science presented far too often as not an expression of what we know but as a bludgeon to force compliance to a narrow liberal progressive worldview.
