Evolution Poll/Talk

I'd really like to see real facts here. What were the exact questions, and what was the sample set? I know Americans are scientific idiots in general, but I just can't believe that so many are that gullible. --LDC

I have a horrible feeling he's not going to be far off, LDC. Those numbers seem a little high, based on things I've read, but only a little. Getting the precise methodology of the survey will be important before we enter anything into the article.

Sidenote: I don't think this needs to be a separate article. Verified numbers, when and if found, should be included in the main article(s), and this "evolution poll" should be canned. Good place for it now, while we sort out the facts, however. - MMGB

I found a better statement of the results, and placed it here. We'll get it sorted out eventually. In any case, I would appreciate it if we kept the poll results in the Creationist articles and out of the science articles; polls don't matter in science. --LDC

Thanks for finding the original web page. I was quoting (1) a page quoting (2) a newspaper article summarizing (3) the Gallup poll. You cut out 1 and 2, good for you!! Ed Poor
