Less Republicans believe in Evolution today than in 2009

[Mott the Hoople]

A new Pew Poll shows that only 43% of Republicans believe humans evolved as compared to 54% in 2009. Lack of education and religiosity tend to be the major reasons why.

The GOP...going backwards since 1980!

[evince]

yes stupid is just how their masters like cons to be

 

[tinfoil]

That is fucked up.

 

[evince]

its what the tea tards and their owners have done to the once proud republican party.

courting the votes of racist stupid people who are willing to lap the lies of fox news.


deeducating the American people is what Fixed news does

 

[Mott the Hoople]

That is fucked up.

Given the factual basis of biological evolution and the vast amounts of data supporting it. Yes, that is truly fucked up that this many people still oppose it.

You speak of a real truth....

Fewer Americans believe Obama today than on inauguration day of 2009.

so, if we believe that human beings are taller than they were thousands of years ago, does that mean we have to think we evolved from amoebas?.........

No. A common ancestor.

 

[Phantasmal]

I love that you still try to educate our board amoeba, PMP

 

[PostmodernProphet]

No. A common ancestor.

????....now you're going to claim a single celled creature was NOT our common ancestor?.......what is it that YOU believe about evolution?.....

 

[Celticguy]

Do you suppose that people have come to question Big Science since it mucked it up so badly the last 15-20 yrs ?

People who are anti rationalism ate often unwilling tondealnwith the truth when it conflicts with their ideology. Creationists and global warming deniers fit into the category of anti rationalists. You cannot make people want the truth when they are determined to remain willfully ignorant.

here is something I have always wondered though, do they REALLY not believe in evolution, or is it something they say outloud but deep down they probably think it's true? I don't know

[NOVA]

So about 30% of Democrats DO NOT believe in evolution....and about 39% of Republicans....+/- 3 %

so we could say 33% of Democrats and 36% of Republicans....big deal...

There are a lot of religious people in both party's.....

The liberal desperation is evident to even bring this up.....

 

[PostmodernProphet]

I see I've struck a nerve with at least three people who've never given thought to what the modern claims of "evolution" actually mean......did you guys think it only meant that humans evolved from some slightly uglier human being?.....

 

[Taft2016]

I believe in Creationism and evolution.

There's nothing mutually exclusive about both beliefs.

I believe life has evolved from what the Creator created.

You don't even know what the modern definition of neodarwinism is so who are you to talk?

Obama is not a time tested scientific theory.

Evolution, like gravity is!
