Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, Rep. Tom Tancredo (Colo.) and Sen. Sam Brownback (Kan.) indicated that they do not believe in evolution at the recent debate among Republican candidates for president of the United States.
The article states:
A recent Newsweek survey presented people with three explanations for the origins of human life: that humans developed over millions of years, from lesser to more advanced forms of life, while God guided the process; that God played no hand in the process; and that God created humans in their present form......Comment: I don't know what to write, that would clarify the issues. On the other hand, I am not going to vote for Huckabee, Tancredo or Brownback. JAD
Nearly half the sample, 48 percent, said the creationism option was closest to their beliefs, and 30 percent chose the hybrid option. Just 13 percent of the sample chose evolution alone as the best approximation of their view of human development.
Those results have been mirrored in a series of Gallup polls that have asked nearly the same question at several points over the past 25 years.
