Only 15 Percent of the US ‘Believe’ in Evolution: According to a recent Gallup poll, the proportion of the US public that believes God had a hand to play with the ‘creation’ of humans has remained unchanged for 30 years.
In 1982, 44 percent of the US public polled said that they believed God created humans in our current form; today, that proportion has risen slightly to 46 percent. Only 15 percent said that they believed that humans evolved as science intended, and that God had no part to play in the process. Although this number is small, it was smaller in 1982 — back then only 9 percent of the US public held this view. The poll was taken by “1,012 adults, aged 18 and older, living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia,” says Gallup. via Gallup
