If so, and if you are an American, you are in the majority. But 16% of your fellow Americans have not. If you are a citizen of the UK, where Darwin lived and stuff, 9% of your fellow citizens have not. Shocking.

I agree with John's conclusion that a (too slim) majority of Americans are "theistic evolutionists." Add that to the a-theistic evolutionists and we have more people in the Evolution camp than we have in either of the major political parties.
