I wonder if this is the same 18% that strongly supports Bush? ;~)

O.O
I fear for our country. I really do. It's one thing to attempt to refute solid evidence with words from a book (Which may or may not be fiction, depending on your stance), but to believe what is the EXACT OPPOSITE of scientific fact without so much as a citation from the bible to back you up, it's nothing short of stupidity.
The scariest part is that it's our country alone that seems to have this problem with anti-intellectualism. This means we're not talking about people who never had the benefit to go to school, who only have their eyes to decide what's true and what's not...We're talking about fully-educated adults here who went to some sort of school and came out of there thinking that the sun revolves around the earth. I blame our society for constantly bad-mouthing those of us willing to actually use our brain. Bad society, bad! No cookie for you!
The only question now is to figure out what to do about it. Any suggestions?
Edit: Another sad observation. The people who put this article on digg misspelled "Revolves" as "Revovles". Fix'd.
