I have got to stop reading the news. Each mouse click is slowly undermining my faith in mankind.

A recent Gallup poll showed that 53% of all Americans believe that “God created man exactly how Bible describes it.” Interestingly, this is almost the same percentage of Americans that believe Saddam Husein had ties to Al Qaeda.

It would have been even more informative if Gallup has asked those 53% which version of Biblical creation they support since the Bible contains two contradictory versions. But no matter.

According to Gallup the rejection of evolution and acceptance of literal creationism was strongest among regular churchgoers, those lacking higher education and Republicans.
