Origins-GRI 18(2):51-52. CELD ID 2778 Abstract A recent Gallup Poll has affirmed significant acceptance of creation. Conducted in 1991, the survey of over 1000 representative adults in the United States also showed that the general "scientific" evolutionary model does not have strong preference. Individuals were given four choices: - Man has developed over millions of years from less advanced forms. God had no part in the process.
- Man has developed over millions of years from less-advanced forms of life, but God guided the process, including man's creation.
- God created man pretty much in his present form at one time within the last 10,000 years.
- I don't know.
Results indicate that only 9% believe in the purely evolutionary model (Choice 1), 40% believed that God was active in a combination of creation and evolution (Choice 2); 47% believed that God created man in the last 10,000 years, as believed by creationists (Choice 3), and 4% did not know.
