If you believe a survey by PEW, you’ll know that NOT EVERYBODY BELIEVES IN EVOLUTION at all.

From a political viewpoint:

  • 65% of independent voters believe in evolution
  • 43% of Republicans believe in evolution (this is down significantly from the 2009 version of this survey — does this mean that Republicans are becoming more and more likely to not belive in evolution?)
  • 67% of Democrats believe in evolution

From a religious viewpoint:

  • 33% of white evangelical Protestants believe in evolution vs 78% of “mainline” Protestants
  • Almost 70% of white Catholics believe in evolution vs 53% of Hispanic Catholics
