the poll question is ambiguous as those who have Faith do actually believe in science, just not science fiction fairy tales based on someone's drawings concocted by their wild imagination.
Matt 22
1 And Jesus answered and spoke to them again by parables and said:
2 "The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who arranged a marriage for his son,
3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the wedding; and they were not willing to come.
4 Again, he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "See, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and fatted cattle are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the wedding." '

9 Therefore go into the highways, and as many as you find, invite to the wedding.'
10 So those servants went out into the highways and gathered together all whom they found, both bad and good. And the wedding hall was filled with guests.
11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw a man there who did not have on a wedding garment.

13 Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe.
8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.
9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him.
11 He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.
12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:
13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
After all. it's way easier to talk up a bunch of crap and "believe in something"
than actually DOING SOMETHING to change the world in a major positive way...just look around you at the state of things ~ GET USED TO HAVING LESS & LESS AS TIME GOES ON.
Faith is for the convenience of comfort to do nothing and the acceptance of the reasonably unacceptable. Another way to live and die in ignorance.
At least it lets you know that 19% of the people are retarded.

Boo-urns. It is hard to find this much detraction from science in other 1st world, Western nations. This poll is obviously just for America.
I can remember a simple example from elementary school.The teacher went to the front of each row and told each student a short story.They were to tell the one behind them,and each one to repeat the story until the student in the back.By then the original story was barely recognizable.
