The polls are in, God

The polls are in, God wins! From Gallup.com:
"[M]any Americans don't accept evolution as proven scientific theory. A March Gallup poll found that when given a choice, 48% of the public said they believe more in the theory of creationism, while just 28% said they believed more in the theory of evolution. Interestingly, 81% of Americans said they considered themselves to be at least somewhat informed on the issue. Additionally, when asked directly about Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, just 35% said that it was a scientific theory that has been well-supported by evidence. Thirty-nine percent say that it has not been well-supported by evidence. The rest say they don't know enough to say."
