Darwin Who?

On 25-October-2005, Worldnetdaily.com reported that a CBS Poll indicates that a majority of Americans believe that God created human beings, and reject the theory of evolution.

According to the Worldnetdaily.com article, the survey showed "51 percent say God created humans in their present form, and another three in 10 say that while humans evolved, God guided the process. Just 15 percent say humans evolved, and that God was not involved."

Participants were asked to choose from the following three options:

1. Human beings evolved from less advanced life forms over millions of years, and God did not directly guide this process;

2. Human beings evolved from less advanced life forms over millions of years, but God guided this process;

3. God created human beings in their present form.

It appears that those most likely to believe in only evolution are liberals (36 percent), those who rarely or never attend church services (25 percent), and those with at least a college degree (24 percent). Hmm, interesting numbers here.

Worldnetdaily.com reported that “The survey was taken via telephone from a nationwide random sample of 808 adults Oct. 3-5, and has a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points.”
