You mean to ask if the creationists are about to quiet literally die out?

Then no, no they aren't. Sadly...

There's certainly a correlation between nationality and belief in evolution.

Pic totally related.

I'd imagine that creationism is more frequent among younger (<40) people. Creationism in its present form is pretty modern.

there is a correlation between education level and knowledge of evolution.

you know, if fucking high school actually teach biology and physics, shit might improve.

I find creationism highly illogical. No matter what I do I cannot understand why creationism even exists and why people do keep believing it, generation after generation?

Yes, it is a puzzling concern to logical thinking that such illogic should succeed in disengaging science from its objective view with fallacy. More research into this befuddling system must be known.

It's just taking the toxic meme of religion to it's logical conclusion of total retardedness.

Also, you yourself said it:
>from generation to generation
it's society-sanctioned brainwashing of children and feeble-minded people when they are defenseless against it

The self-propagation is why religion is so dangerous a meme. It leaves almost no chance for the next generation to avoid it.

Fortunately it is still losing ground, slowly but steadily.

science is thinking with rigor, not objectivity. Thinking with objectivity is impossible. Rigor serves as an alternative to objectivity.

That is a robust alternative to logical fallacy which cristian Creation creates with design to be a fallacy to science which is logical. groups arrangement is logical and independent of fallacy. Hence, math.

The world values survey has some pretty interesting information. For example, atheism increases with educational level. You can also show results against all sorts of other criteria, such as age, sex, country, etc

They don't believe it; they're just trolling.

Creationism is a totem: something which testifies to the power of the tribe. The more numerous your tribe, the crazier the shit you can say without anyone trying to slap sense into you or having you detained for psychiatric treatment.
