Republicans' belief in evolution plummets, poll reveals [with Charts]
by Lindsey Boerma, CBS News -- Dec 30, 2013
Fewer Republicans today than in 2009 believe in evolution, according to new analysis from the Pew Research Center.
A poll out Monday shows that less than half -- 43 percent -- of those who identify with the Republican Party say they believe humans have evolved over time, plunging from 54 percent four years ago. Forty-eight percent say they believe “humans and other living things have existed in their present form since the beginning of time,” up from 39 percent in 2009.
At 67 percent and 65 percent, respectively, the numbers of Democrats and independents who believe in evolution have remained more or less the same since 2009. They’re also in step with the population nationally: Six-in-10 Americans say they believe humans have evolved.

In terms of advancing modern society and promoting "the march of science," one could say that Republicans on average, are
de-volving.
But hey who needs "Science" when you, the Farmers Almanac, Barber bloodletting, and the power of positive denial -- to cure your every modern-day problem?
What do those dang Scientists know anyways? They can't even see back before the a start of the Universe. Maybe, they need to look up the length of light-year again, in the Almanac, you know like are our all-knowing ancestors used to do, eh?
