Well, I find the findings of the poll difficult to believe. When you give people 3 very narrow statements and tell them to pick the one closest to what they believed your results are going to be skewed. Why was the phrase within the last 10000 yrs included in the only non-evoltuionary statement? What level of change constitutes evolution? Is Neandretal man human? It's way to complex an issue to sum up with 3 narrow statements.

Irrelevant to the point at hand though.

I don't have an interpretation of creation in the bible, but I can say that I don't believe that if a God created everything that he did it in 144 hours. I don't believe all he had to do was say let there be light and there was light. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the account of something that unfathomable would have to be dumbed down considerably to appeal to the masses.

My point is that to there is nothing in either theory that eliminates the possibility of the other being truth. If were going to use people who interpret the bible on a word by word literal basis as the keystone of an argument against what I said then you win I guess.
