CBS News | Poll: Creationism Trumps Evolution | September 27, 2005?09:34:43


65% of Americans are in favor or teaching creationism and evolution in schools?
I really think that it's time to divide the red and blue states into two different countries.
Let all of the red states do their thing (teach creationism, stop stem cell research, promote very large families and focus on fundamentalist pursuits) while letting the blue states pursue their beliefs (freedom of thought and speech, let women control their own bodies and let those who are in love marry, pursue science and not dogma, create egalitarian society). Then we could see how different the two countries are after twenty years and decide if it was the right path... Of course you'd have to include Canada with the blue (socialized medicine, care for the young and elderly, legalized marijuna...) so that there was a common border.
