To me evolution is like gravity. It just is. 67% of Democrats accept the idea of evolution. That means that 33%, or 1/3 of Democrats, don’t accept a concept that is basic to biology and medicine and has universal scientific support.
I take little comfort that only 43% of Republicans accept evolution. I expect them to deny science. They do it all the time. But 1/3 of the Democrats? That’s amazing.
The data comes from a recent survey by the Pew Research Center’s Religion & Public Life Project.
