About a month ago, I posted polls on both the creationist and TEist forums asking people to identify which denomination they are part of. The results show a significant difference for the Baptist and Lutheran denominations. Baptists appear to be strongly creationist, while Lutherans appear to be strongly TEist. For the remaining denominations, there was no significant discrepancy.
I would now like to invite comment on these interesting results. Can anyone explain why the Baptist and Lutheran denominations are lopsided with regards to Origins belief?
