An Inconvenient Poll

As a follow up to my post earlier, I just found out that two-thirds of America believes creationism is.... TRUE! I nearly fell out of my chair. All the effort to brainw--I mean, educate us into believing that macro evolution is a law of the universe just simply wasted.

This is a catch-22 for public school advocates. If they say that the two-thirds is wrong, and they likely will, they will have no one to blame but themselves. If they admit that they're right, and that's not very likely, they'll have to explain why they've been actively suppressing the truth for most of a century. This is one poll they just want to go away.
