cary, you've either got one terrible comprehension problem, or you're a
LIAR.
Read that page again http://christianparty.net/gallupcreation.htm
Better yet, here's an excerpt:
Human beings have developed over millions of years from less advanced forms
of life, but God guided this process. 40%
Human beings have developed over millions of years from lessadvanced forms
of life. God had no part in this process. 9
God created human beings pretty much in their present form at one time
within the last 10,000 years or so. 47
No opinion 4
Let me do the math for you, since you seem to be in such a state of denial
that you can't do it.
A total of 87% believe that God created life.
A total of 4% had no opinion.
A total of 9% are "evolutionists" who believe "God had no part in this
process".
It's REAL easy to fool feminazis, isn't it? Just pay attention, and we'll
guide you along.
