While you may feel a need to be petty, the majority of all Americans - not just Texans - disbelieve in evolution.

On the eve of the 200th anniversary of Charles Darwin's birth, a new Gallup Poll shows that only 39% of Americans say they "believe in the theory of evolution,"

New from the story above

38 percent said human beings developed over millions of years with God guiding the process and another 12 percent said that development happened without God having any part of the process.


That's 50% of Texans polled who believe in evolution. Doesn't change the fact that 6 out of 10 Texans believed that humans co-existed with dinosaurs or didn't know if humans lived at the same time as dinosaurs.

Here's some more statistics for you:


After eight years of having Perry as governor, Texas ranks second in public school enrollment, but 49th in teacher pay, 46th in SAT scores, 50th in residents with a high school diploma, 41st in high school graduation rates and 47th in state percentage of state revenue spent on public education.

"Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from."
