Half of the adult population of the United States doesn't accept the scientific explanation of the origin of our species, and they vote. Politicians educated in Ivy League schools who know better privately publicly cater to their scientific illiteracy.
For the record, I think these young Earth creationists are interpreting Genesis chapter one correctly. I don't believe the Priestly author who penned that account was speaking figuratively. The Bible has the science wrong, that much
is obvious, but these fundamentalists are interpreting the text as it was intended to be understood.
