"Total college grads who are creationists: 25%"
But look at the SECOND question!:
Man has developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but God guided this process, including man's CREATION (emphasis mine). College graduates: 54% [!] Add the 25% of pure creationist and you get a whopping 79%!
Good job guys, you've made my case for me. PLEASE, KEEP SENDING ME YOUR STUFF!!! BAHHHAAAAA!!! LOL !!!

Astonishing 88% of Americans Believe in Creation or God-Directed Evolution [!]
You seem to be under the mistaken perception that science is some sort of popularity contest. It's kind of sad, really.
What is sad is the delusional attributes Evos have of the populous. At first they say "most educated people believe in Evolution;" then when they are confronted with the fact that most educated people believe in Creation, they say its not a popularity contest.
"Lurkers," I rest my case! ;)
I never made that claim. You obviously have me confused with someone else. 99 percent of the populous could believe in creationism, but it doesn't make it any more true.
99 percent of the populous could believe in evolution, but it doesn't make it any more true.
"99 percent of the populous could believe in evolution, but it doesn't make it any more true."
Celmak, are you just reprinting what Junior says? He's right, so I guess that would be ok...
Celmak, do actually believe when you get statistics from a Religious source that has an obvious agenda, that those numbers are good? And don't rest your case yet, you are bound to be wrong twenty or thirty more times just on this thread.
So you're saying that non-science should be taught in science class because most people believe the non-science to be true? Most people in this country believe their horoscopes too. Do you think we should include astrology alongside astronomy? Most people of my acquaintance at least seem to have lucky numbers they play in the lottery; should we include numerancy in our math courses?
"We do live in a democracy though"
No we don't.
"BAHHHAAAAA!!! LOL !!!"
I may never eat Coco Puffs again.
"So you're saying that non-science should be taught in science class because most people believe the non-science to be true?"
Celmak has no clue what he is saying.
Hey, playing the percentages, a vast majority of Muslims believe we all need to die. Line em' up boys, the verdict is in. No, sorry, we took a poll and all infidels must die.
Didn't, know Gallop was religious.
"Celmak, are you just reprinting what Junior says? He's right, so I guess that would be ok...
Better read what Junior wrote.
And don't rest your case yet, you are bound to be wrong twenty or thirty more times just on this thread.
Bring it on!
Let's see, with a little rewording here, I'll ask this question:
So you're saying that Evolution should be taught in science class because few people believe Evolution to be true? Most people in this country believe their horoscopes too. Do you think we should include astrology alongside astronomy? Most people of my acquaintance at least seem to have lucky numbers they play in the lottery; should we include numerancy in our math courses?
Next thing you know, they will be saying that Saint Christopher never existed. I mean, mis or dis information is known only to science, right?
"No we don't."
OK, Democratic-Republic.
Apparently, that's where 2nsdammit got his poll.
BAHHHAAAAA-BAHHHAAAAA!!! LOLOLOL !!!"
School in the CRIDer world:
Of course, we have to include the Hindu Creation "theory," the American Indian Creation "theory," the Zoroastrian Creation "theory."
But those aren't "religion," just "alternate theories."
Of course, theories explain WHY something happens, but the CRIDers always seem to think they explain THAT something happens. Thus they don't understand why gravity is a "theory" even though you see something fall.
