Arithmetic and a HUGE assumption on your part that you can count on those 82% as being supportive of teaching creationism as an alternate or the only instruction in school.

Those that believe in theistic evolution (like myself) do NOT support teaching creationism in school.

So your “simple arithmetic” is only simple in that it is simple minded.

You just don't get it. As long as there is a Free Market demand for scientists there will be a Free Market demand for schools that teach science.

The Free Market doesn't demand that less popular ideas that pay off be eliminated just because they are less popular.

If the majority of Americans stop learning science, scientists will be trained by and hired by the minority of Americans that still seek to produce value using science.

Do you understand enough about the Free Market to understand that ideas that pay off, no matter their relative popularity, will continue to have a Market?

The Free Market demand for scientists will not go away, no matter how much you might wish it would. So long as there is a Free Market demand for scientists, there will be a Free Market demand for science education.

PARENTS who have MONEY (perhaps from their job as a highly trained scientist) will seek to purchase an EDUCATION that includes science; thus so long as there is a Free Market demand for scientists, schools that teach evolution will not die out.

Where do you think this Free Market demand for highly trained scientists is going to go? When ‘you and your kind’ outbreed everybody else, you wont need none of that stuff?

The Demand will be for schools which teach Creationist Science, because that's what we Parents will spend our money on.

It really doesn't matter if Evolutionist Schools could guarantee our kids a Million-Dollar-a-Year Job fresh out of graduation, because we won't purchase their services. Sending a child to an Evolutionist School is a form of Child Abuse, and absolutely no amount -- NO amount -- of supposed "payoff", would be sufficient to persuade us to so Harm our children.

If there were Schools which offered students Mandatory Daily Raping as a "service" of their schooling -- and also the promise of a Good Job after graduation -- do you think that Christian Parents would send our children to such schools?

No. They would die off because of lack of Demand.
And we have the same attitude towards the teaching of Evolutionism.

Give us our Money back, and Evolutionist Schools will die out -- because we Parents will not send our children to School to be Mentally Raped. For ANY amount of alleged "payoff".
