Q&@

ACCORDING TO
A 2012 GALLUP SURVEY,
ONLY ABOUT 15% of Americans think
that Homo sapiens evolved through natural selection alone,
free of all divine intervention; 32% maintain that humans may have evolved
from earlier life forms in a process lasting millions of years, but God orchestrated this entire show;
46% believe that God created humans in their current form sometime during the last 10,000 years, 'just as
the Bible' says. Spending three years in collage has absolutely no impact on these views. The same survey found
that among BA graduates, 46% believe in the 'Biblical Creation Story', whereas only 14% think that humans evolved with-
out any divine supervision?! Even among holders of MA & PhD degrees, 25% believe the Bible, whereas only 29% credit
natural selection alond with the creation of our species. Though schools evidently
do a very poor job teaching evolution, religious zealots still insist that it should
not be taught at all!? Alternatively, they demand that children
must also be taught the theory of intelligent design,
according to which all organisms were created
by the design of some higher
intelligence (aka
God).
