Creationism vs Theistic evolution: demographics

Yeesh, so many posts on December 25th. Go have a mince pie or something.



As you can see support for evolution is weakest among Jehovah's Witnesses and strongest among Catholics - though even among them support isn't all that high.

There a few things about these trends worth noting. First is that most of the data comes from the USA, which has stronger creationist affiliations than other countries. Second is that Hindus and Buddhists both show more support for evolution than those with no religious identity (the "unaffiliated"). Third, this particular research dates from 2009 and so may be somewhat out of date by now.

Sorry it took so long to answer your question.
