Millennials turn away from Creationism
Came across this blog post today. The author in question used data from the General Social Survey to look at the views of different age cohorts (i.e. generations) and whether they believe humans developed from animals.
The results show pretty clearly that younger generations are trending away from creationist beliefs. This reinforces similar demographics results from other surveys (Gallup, Pew Research, etc).
What is immediately clear is that a move away from the special creation of human beings, as opposed to common descent, is occurring among most demographics among Millennials. Even self-described “fundamentalists” show a shift from older generations to Millennials!
