The science deniers of Idiot America, it's much worse than I thought.

Please see the gallup poll at the end of this post.

What got my attention was this: Creationism, that is, the idea that God created human beings pretty much in their present form at one time within the last 10,000 years = 15% definitely false.

This means only 15% of Americans are certain the most ridiculous idea ever invented is bullshit. It means 85% of Americans are idiots who are not able to completely reject the possibility that a fairy with a magic wand created people out of nothing 10,000 years ago. Therefore the Christian retards who think they accept evolution are not really accepting it all. If they had any understanding of the evidence for evolution and how evolution works they would not be saying magical-intelligent-design-creationism is probably false instead of definitely false.

This gallup poll shows the denial of evolution is mostly for religious reasons. And this is 152 years after Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. Darwin waited several years before publishing his masterpiece partly because he wanted to first accumulate more evidence, but also because he was concerned with the reaction he expected. He knew he was killing god during a time when virtually everyone was a superstitious idiot. He wrote “it is like confessing a murder”.

If Darwin could be alive today, two things would surprise him. He would notice the evidence for Natural Selection is more powerful than he could have ever imagined possible. And I think he would be very surprised to find out despite the massive amount of evidence for evolution, there are still millions of people who refuse to understand it because it conflicts with the bullshit in the Bible. He would wonder why the human race is just as backward in the 21st century as it was in the 19th century.

A. Evolution, that is, the idea that human beings developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life
