bah...

still waiting for a shred of evidence to back up the hilariously outrageous things i pointed out before.

even if you believe those poll results, you're drawing visibly false conclusions from it.

under the creationism section it says...
Quote:
"God created man pretty much in its present form at one time in the past 10,000 years."
first, the question pigeonholes everything that may fall under the creationism umbrella. what if you believe man was created 11,000 years ago? there are many many ways to hold a creationism view without placing the birth of humanity within such a timeline. even if you do think man was made as we are now within the last 10,000 years... it says nothing about the earth before man was made. that maybe a "young man" theory, but it's irrelevant to a young earth theory. additionally, people of MANY religions hold that their God is the source of creation. you're taking the percentage of all people who believe in creationism and attributing the entire set to fundamentalist Christians.
