Re: Public Acceptance of Evolution Interesting that not many Muslim contries are represented in the graph. I don't see China or India either.
Anyway...
I read some of the article and skimmed the rest. It doesn't look like they were very consistent or thorough in defining what exactly they meant by "evolution." The word can mean anything from "change over time" to something like "advancement of all living species of living things from a single celled organism through undirected mutation."
Everyone believes in natural selection - micro evolution. That is reproducable and observable. The qeustion about whether "Human beings, as we know them, developed from earlier species of animals," leaves a lot to be desired. Do they mean undirected development, directed development, or either?
Anyway, somewhat interesting, but not very useful. |
