78% are bozos who think that god made humans in a few days or think that it intervenes in evolution. Only 13% have a clue about the science.

62% against 29% say they would not vote for an atheist candidate, even though 68% say that an atheist can be a moral person.

In other words, there are around thirty percent who would not vote for an atheist even though they think he/she is a moral person.

Welcome to the USA–United Stupids of America.
