Happy Darwin Day to the 12.2%* of Americans who believe that “man”** came to be by evolving from earlier forms of life over millions of years. So, if this means you, you might want to send your Valentine’s Day card a couple days early this year.
*This number jumps up to almost 54% if you add in the “God guided evolution and created man” responses. These data are from the 2004 GSS, variable name: CREATION.
**Let me tell you something, GSS Question Writers: if women weren’t around, evolution wouldn’t have worked nearly as well.

wait…. 12.2% for real? holy crap. wow.
in an unrelated survey, 86.3% of Americans believe life is a highway and they want to ride it all night long.
Is it just me, or has something horrible happened to our template? It’s reverted to the Sandbox default.
it’s not just you.
The style sheet is still in tact on our dashboard. It’s a WordPress problem. This would be an example of how evolution does not equal progress.
Orgtheory’s WordPress template is fine. I’m thinking they are to blame.
it’s god getting you for posting something negative about him. don’t be surprised if it’s only the beginning. 87.8% of Americans can’t be wrong.
