Interesting article which basically states that support for a strict Creationism explanation for humans and life on Earth has reached an all time low. But it goes on to explain that people are not jumping to atheism, instead they are adopting the hybrid solution...that evolution is indeed the way life proceeds, and it is how their god has gotten life to its present state and continues to shape it.
That is exactly the point I have made in many evolution/creationism debates on this MB. The evidence for evolution is overwhelming, but who is to say that evolution wasn't the way the creator wanted things to proceed in the first place? Too many view acceptance of evolution as a denial of god when the two do not have to be mutually exclusive. Hopefully this trend will continue and reduce the amount of religious input trying to influence science and science education.
