I didn't evolve from apes.

However, I work with some folks that did.

51% represents "most Americans"? Reads like something from the drive-by media.

I don't believe this. Is that still nice?

This survey doesn't ruin my day. I know many deeply religious people who believe that evolution is compatible with religion. Personally, I just don't know. Then again, looking at Slo Joe Biden and you kinda get the feeling that maybe this 51% is onto something.

The "existed in their present form since the beginning of time" bunch would seem to be holding static in the two polls. Then again, that's consistent with their position.

I'm really surprised it's not higher than 51. :~)

Most folks who believe that there is a Creator choose not to spend the time getting up to speed on the ins and outs of the debate on this issue, as to the science. Thus, it tends all too often among many citizens to become a issue of which side to take in the culture wars. That is my take on this matter.

Okay. So I guess that makes the THEORY of evolution a fact.

I wonder how many people believe Pluto is a planet.

"More adults in the United States believe the theory of evolution is correct, according to a poll by the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press. "
 
Another poll taken, directly after the Pew researchers, indicated that most of the original responders were unaware that the free coffee and donuts were unconditional, and completely unrelated to their responses.
 
Coincidentally, my own poll, which I took some while ago confirmed 100% that General Motors Service Departments were run by jerks.

Most Americans believe in astrology. And Jesus.

"Existed in their present form
since the beginning of time"

Stupidly phrased question.

Nobody believes this; even the Biblical account of creation doesn't teach this.

"In the beginning was the Word..."
but man wasn't created until at least the 6th day so the clock was already running.

After watching Georgie Soros' "DemocRATS" and their IslamoFascist pals over the past 6 years, I really believe that "reverse evolution" has begun. The IslamoFascists have already moved back into the caves. I don't think the DemocRATS will be far behind. I'm also convinced that "reverse evolution" occurs when you no longer use your brain. That explains why the DemocRATS are showing the first signs of "reverse evolution." They are also starting to congregate into different tribes again. Survivor is going to do a show about it.

Polls are meaningless, unless your side is ahead, so I think this one is significant. Note the change of 3% to our side since last year. It's time to celebrate and throw an evilutionist party, as if we needed a reason.
