Because studies show that creationists tend to be concentrated among those with low levels of education. I remember a study two years ago that said that the group with the highest level of belief in creationism/intelligent design were black women with a HS education or less.

Please give a link to your so called studies. You sound like the DBM, with their "some say" and "some argue" statements when trying to prove a point. They also use the "studies show" and "polls show" type of journalism. If you are going to cite studies please give a link so we can have some confirmation. It is hard for me to believe that the majority of creationists are ignorant bottom dwellers.

I met plenty of those black women”true believers”with less than high school educations when I lived in the South.
They are about as rigid a group of fundamentalists as you will find.No high falutin intellectualizations of great theological questions.
I must say,however,despite or maybe even BECAUSE of their dogmatism,they had to be some of the finest and kindest women I have ever met.

You can add me to your collection of advanced degree people who believe the world is created. There are a lot of us out here.

Right. Those who believe the truth must be less educated. Everybody knows that.

Here's a creationist who graduated first in his college class with a perfect 4.0 GPA.
