Cross-cultural comparison of evolution & God

Acceptance of Evolution & belief in God, over at Secular Right. Here's my conclusion:

... In any case, I think the two observations I would make is that Roman Catholicism's acceptance of evolution shows, as those nations tend to be above the trendline. And, Communism really, really, messes a nation up. I doubt that the rejection of evolution has as much to do with Lysenkoism as it does with overall underdevelopment....

But, you should go read the whole thing as there are charts that will likely interest....
