I've heard rumours that there are places in America that still teach this idea of 7 days and a god taking dust out of the ground to build a human, wasn't sure if that was true or not, or just the state of education before 1920

Whoah!
Sorry Jim - was gonna play along, cos after all, it's kinda whacky that the whole 7 days thing is still apparently being taught as fact, rather than as part of Falco's Bumper Story Hour, ain't it? But...but, but that's just a staggering and scary statistic that was just revealed here. 70% of Americans REJECT evolution and believe in a Creator?
70%...of the most powerful nation on Earth...reject the patient transformation of simple life into complex life in response to challenges in its environment over millions of years, supported by wide-ranging physical evidence. In favour of the Wizard of Oz and his "very busy week"?
Jeesh...the extremist Christians are right, this really is the end of days. How is this possible???

Here in the Bible Belt 7 days of dust will be the norm soon... I read an article in the Dallas paper about Christian schools getting away from theory of evolution or teaching it as an elective. Yikes!

A recent study by Emporia State University reported that 30% of high school biology teachers today don't believe in evolution as the source of all life.
But since you seem to know so much about it, please explain how, through undocumented, unverified, unobserved, and even proven fraudelent reasoning has led you to believe that life formed by rain falling on rocks for millions of years into a pre-mordial soup that spontaneously and accidently created protien chains that formed together into a life form that then found something to eat...

I got a kick out of Gary's response.
Creationists seem to think that you can vote on the truth.
If that was the case, the world would probably still be flat.
PS: Gary, over 50% of americans believe in UFO's. The majority of the population can be incredibly stupid, just like you.

I think a band named "Evolution Revolution" might have come to play one of our dances in junior high school ...
Seriously ... has evolution ever been proven? I haven't heard that it has been.
Until that day, it's not scientific to teach in schools something that has yet to be proven as fact.

I think in private schools they teach the religious point of view. But they teach evolution at my son's high school....

Some redneck haven's still offer both "possible theories" in very small, stupid places.
