You know... I live in Texas, grew up in a small town, lots of baptists.
I've literally never met a single person who didn't believe in evolution and the 'long' geological history.
I feel like the 'young earth' demographic is extremely small, and gets far more play than is warranted. The vast majority of theists do not fall into this category.
I'd like to see some real numbers, but that's what my personal experience tells me.

That study is fascinating. I'm shocked at how high the number is.
