Gallup poll on
creationism
"A poll conducted by the Gallup Organization in 2005 found that 29% of Americans
believe that creationism (including life originating 6,000 years ago) is
definitely true with respect to explaining the origin of life on earth. About
20% consider evolution definitely true, and only 8% believe intelligent design
is definitely true. The results also indicate that many people still have mixed
views on the compatibility of evolution and creation.
By 58% to 26%, a majority of Americans express their belief in creationism; by
55% to 34%, a majority also accept evolution. But 32% of Americans tend to
reject intelligent design, while 31% say it is probably true. The statistics
make it clear that many Americans are blending ideas of creation and evolution
together in an attempt to make sense of the conflicting messages. (Standing on
the authority of the Bible will lead to an acceptance of creationism as the only
position consistent with Scripture.)" Evolution Exposed, Second Ed. Gallup poll on creationism
