I'm so used to conservatives making crap up that the statement regarding evolution "Just 13 percent say that God was not involved" went into my cerebral trashcan as soon as I read it. But if you think about it, it's probably true, although it doesn't have the importance that the Conserv-O-pedia people think it has.
If you believe in God -- which the vast majority of people do -- and you accept that evolution is valid, then logically you have to believe that God was involved with evolution, because God has to necessarily be involved with everything. Frankly, that 13 percent figure seems a little large to me given this.
Now I don't believe in intelligent design or any of that nonscientific hooey, so don't label me as such. The looneybin right argues that God and evolution are incompatible, so don't you all spout the same baloney.
