It is so sad that Americans must believe in creationism in order to be accepted in society. But a belief is what holds a society together, gives it a common bond.
The theory of Creationism is based on the science of primitive societies could understand but is supported by beliefs and is not open to criticism.
The theory of electricity is based on facts as we see them, but we know it works cause you are on a computer right now.
and so is evolution.
In the theory of evolution species that ressist change (specializers) tend to become extinct with a change in thier enviroment.

Creationism is a religious belief. It's acceptance is based on faith. Evolution is a scientific theory. It is either proven or proven false based on objective techniques that are the same no matter who applies them.

The thing to know about evolution is that, despite over 100 years of applying the scientific method to it, there is no evidence that supports the theory. As a matter of fact, across all fields of science, where you would expect to see certain observations (fossil record, gene mapping, microbiological studies etc.) those observations are markedly absent without exception. This is strong proof that evolution is simply false. There can be no debate on the issue because of the objective and standardized methods of science. You either have the evidence or you don't. And no one has the evidence for evolution even though that evidence should be easy to obtain. Evolution should be as easy to demonstrate as taking a bacteria and causing it to replicate a few million times and watching as it evolves into a different bacteria (this never happens, btw). Yet, nothing like this is ever observable in support of evolution. It is interesting to note that complex and difficult to observe theories like general and special relativity have been scientifically proven, while an easy to observe one like evolution has not. The reason should be obvious. It is an invalid theory.

That is not to say that science does not have something to say about the etiology of life, including human life. But, it is obvious to anyone who applies the scientific method that evolution is not it.

It matters not what one chooses to believe, unless said choice involves ill will and harm toward others, however the statistics regarding your question reveal that more than 72% of US citizens accept and follow so-called religious doctrine that is based upon creationism. The theory of evolution is taught in most public schools and Universities throughout the US, whereas creationism is seldom taught if not at all within the public scholastic system.

I think it's about 1/2 and 1/2 to be honest.

Schools are funded by the government. With our Constitution of our nation, we strive to separate church and state to the highest degree without infringing on personal rights and freedoms of religion. It's a very delicate balance and teeter to much to one side and the other side marches on capitol hill!

I would say contrary the science of evolution is far more academic then the quasi-science of intelligent design (which is really creationism dressed up to be a science)

Any reputable university would ignore non-academic opinions

People who believe in creationism are living in a fantasy world.
