I like both theories.

I like the theory of evolution, and I like the my religious beliefs. I also like to keep them separated.

I believe in the tooth fairy and Santa Clause...since niether cross paths and dont overlap it all makes sense to me.

When religious myths have the same level of credibility in public life as astrology does today, then I'll be absolutely fine with them.

That's illogical. If God knows how "it plays out", we don't make any choices at all - we can't possibly have free will if our actions are predetermined.

Even with margin of error, this poll clearly demonstrates a preference for public schools to stick to academia.
