The hell-in-a-handbasket open thread from yesterday went so well that I figured I would feed everyone’s newly-found love of disgusting statistics with this lovely graph, via PZ Myers. And do please go over to his place for a much better analysis than I feel up to giving right now.
It’s comparing, by European country + the U.S.A. + Japan, the number of people who identify the statement, “Human beings, as we know them, developed from earlier species of animals” as being true, false, or uncertain. Blue is for the people who responded “true.” Red is “false.” (click to make it bigger)
Meanwhile, I apologise for the recent lack of original programming, and I hope to be back later with a film review. Because believe it or not, I saw a movie yesterday.
