44% aren't aware of what theories Darwin is associated with O.o

I don't care if you don't think evolution is correct, but simply not knowing what theories he created at all? Don't these people get taught anything in school?

On topic, maybe the film is simply crap? But it can't be too horrible if it got distributors everywhere else. I definitely think there have been some business disputes with the distributors (eg percentage or gross or something) that he hasn't been able to work out with them.

Its like GTA, create controversy. It usually helps ones financial prospects if done correctly.

 

EDIT I thought Hitler was more influenced by Eugenics then he was Darwinism?

It's fairly common knowledge that the US educational system fails.

Something like one fifth of British teens think Winston Churchill was a fictional character.

Winston Churchill who played a MUCH MORE direct role in the history of England then Darwin did in the history of anything.

People in general are... not stupid persay... but don't care to remember stuff that doesn't directly impact their lives.

The history of biology? Or even science?

 

Afterall, Darwin is widely considered the father of modern biology because the theory of evolution is so very central to it, given that biology is one of the major branches of science he is easily one of the greatest scientists of the 19th century.

 

But yeah, stupid people are stupid in every country.

Believe it or not,  yes.  Sceince is considered worthless to most people.
