The article reports that 50% of the USA does not believe in evolution. Of all the countries listed, the US is on the bottom of the list, next to Turkey. Very fitting.
I put this article with Republicans, since the party ties itself heavily to Christianity. One day I hope Christians will start to think for themselves, but that concept kind of goes against the foundation of most religions. Independent thought is the opposite of Religion.
Frightening to know that one the most powerful countries in the world (the US) have more than 50% of its population believing that Evolution is false. Evolution, the theory that is supported by such a weight of evidence, is false. Meanwhile... religion... which in many cases, refuses to even try and provide any evidence (the "faith" clause... if you doubt you are an unbeliever and unworthy), gets a strong following. I find it ironic that the country who for all intensive purposes, is leading the war against religious extremists, is actually providing the perfect breeding ground for them. Believe what it says in books written thousands of years ago... forget logical decisions, it's all written down here for you. Let's not forget... Christians can be extremists too. Let's just hope that as the world grows older, we can ween ourselves away from the fantasy that is religion and stick to the facts.
