The U.S is doomed.

What is "Non-Binary"?

Anyway, you have to realize 95% of the US population could be made of bipedal talking vegetables and it wouldn't matter. Scientific progress is made by the very few. This how it has been throughout human history. Most people are clueless, today just a bit a bit less.

Having an educated populace has a fuckton more benefits than simply making scientific progress.

People voted for Obama. That's proof enough for me that some people are either stupid or flat fucking nuts. Yes, we are doomed.

90,000,000 or so who could have voted didn't vote... It seems to me that they are the nuts... How can we complain when a bit over 57% turn out to vote? Even Jimmy Janos could have won with the support of the non voters.

Obamacare aside

Do you honestly believe McCain or Romney would have been any better and what would they have done differently?

Welcome to P&N

You'll find that this what the Religious Republicans in here want.

They did away with Science under Bush.

Show the demographic for this poll.

I've heard members of Congress indicate the age of Earth to be <10,000 years. And, some disturbing percentage of the population agree. I wonder if any of the responders follow the notion that Earth is the center of the Universe and logically, therefore, conclude that the Sun orbits Earth, ergo, a trick question.

Ooh, the dreaded scientific anecdote! Links to anyone in office? :hmm:

Look for the (R) after their name.

Ignore the 41% of the Democrats that believe it.

One of my co-workers believes we never landed on the moon. He voted for Romney.

Another co-worker believes 911 was a conspiracy by Bush-Cheney. He voted for Obama.

Nuttiness has no party loyalty

Yes but many in the right want to push their religious agenda and teach un-scientific views as gospel ~

All I have to say is wow. http://news.yahoo.com/1-4-americans-unaware-earth-circles...

The EU is doomed, they answered this question worse than the US.

http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/seind06/append/c7/at07-10.pdf

Americans - 71% say Earth goes around Sun

EU-25 - 66% say Earth goes around Sun

I love how all the news sources focus on Americans but ignore the other countries surveyed.

How's your revolution coming along?

Are you in a rush? Are you all packed, ready to leave the Country?

Yeah, we're scared silly over here, no doubt. With lazy fatties like you fighting this "revolution", I'm sure everyone is safe.
