I hope this number goes up within a few years, for the United States' sake! It's rediculous that evolution isn't taught there when it's been taught for MANY years in other countries, like Canada.

Evolution has been taught for many years as well in America.

Well then I don't understand why there isn't a higher % that believes in it. I find it weird that people believe in something that has no evidence (w/e religion they're in) and not something that has tons of evidence. O_o It's scary!

Well, we don't have the Canadian percentages so we can't make a comparison.

Here are a couple links, but I have no idea how accurate this is.

Not too surprising. I've always kinda beleived Canada to be more liberal than the US and the thought process seems to carry over a bit.
