You are riught, it is a Dawkins graph actually, although I doubt he drew it up. the 1,400 sampling rate does seem to to show some bias... But then again not many Americans I speak to here acknowldge evolution.... I dunno...

A lot of people believe in evolution but don't aknowledge it I think.
Mostly because of people of people like Richard Dawkins.
I had a conversation with a priest the other day... and generally most priests and there congregassions and the like actually do seem to believe in evolution.
It's just they don't believe in the "Atheist's evolution."
And as such if asked if they believed in evolution would say no.
The difference generally being that a lot of people feel that atheists put a lot of pressure on people suggesting that if you believe in evolution you don't believe in god.
While most people do believe in evolution but believe it is how god did it.
Outside of like Evangelicals and Mormons anyway.
Mostly people just would rather not talk about it or say they don't believe in evolution (when they mean the atheist interpretation) because they're sick of everyone thinking they take the entire bible literally and are sick of atehists bothering them about shit saying stuff like "Well if you believe in evolution doesn't that mean everything you believe in is bullshit!"
