Evolution by country

That evolution fares not very well in United States is no news, but look at some other countries. Sure, it's a relatively small sample to go by, but still... I'd give a higher estimate for Croatia (my homeland) and Austria, or for Lithuania and Latvia, and a lower one for Italy. Adults were asked to respond to the statement: "Human beings, as we know them, developed from earlier species of animals." And the options were true, not sure, and false. I'm not sure most adult people even understand this simple statement correctly. In fact, most draw their understanding of evolution from a simplified representation offered in elementary education.

Have a look at the chart, and/or the full story.
