That's pretty good! I believe it has increased by 2%! Progress.

I've read the other comments. At least you folks don't have a giant publicly funded creationist boat & museum like we do here in Kentucky.

Only science of evolution should be taught in schools. If creationists want their children to be taught creationism, that should only be done in their Sunday schools. Where I don't pay for it, and it's not forced on impressionable minds.

I know, that’s nuts. I’m a transplant here, and love the lakes, mountains and Music. But I have a hard time living among people who don’t believe in evolution and still say prayers before every event in PUBLIC schools. I started dating a very attractive and successful woman that I was interested in, and on the third date she told me she didn’t believe in evolution. Her exact words were “You might have come from a monkey, but I didn’t”. What am I supposed to do with that?

Explain to her that when the evolution tree branches it is the start of profound changes mainly due to random gene changes so that both branches from then on are profoundly different in many respects . The branching took place so long ago that the two branches whilst retaking a few common characteristics can in no way said to be related except through that far distant evolutionary shake up.
You can however continue to 'monkey around' with her and neither of you would have any fears about your offspring because you have no monkey genes to pass on.

I had that from a lady. So I said. Camel, cow, rabbit ? Sadly she did not think it was funny.

They are probably the same percentage that has any rational understanding of evolution.
