In 2012, about half of Americans agreed with the following statement: “Astrology is not at all scientific.”
According to data from a June 2014 Gallup Poll, 42% of Americans believe themselves to be fully literate on matters of avian phylogeny and development (i.e. birds developed on Day Five, because, you know... creationism).
The most recent national Climate Change in the American Mind survey (Nov 2014) found that about 1 in 4 Americans think that global warming is not happening.

TRUE OR FALSE?
In 2011, the state of North Carolina passed a bill that deemed it illegal for the sea level to increase greater than a “projected” 20cm by 2100.
Recently a paper was peer reviewed and accepted at the International Journal of Advanced Computer Technology. The paper contained used word “f**king” over 500 times.
“Jedi Mind Trick” is a term that has been academically recognized in psychological research on coercion persuasion.
Research has shown that the more educated Republicans are, the more likely they will disagree with the scientific consensus on anthropogenic climate change.

Replacement House Bill 819, section 2, paragraph e.
E6: Global mean sea level rise for 2081–2100 relative to 1986–2005 will likely be in the ranges of 0.26 to 0.55 m for RCP2.6, 0.32 to 0.63 m for RCP4.5, 0.33 to 0.63 m for RCP6.0, and 0.45 to 0.82 m for RCP8.5 (medium confidence). For RCP8.5, the rise by the year 2100 is 0.52 to 0.98 m, with a rate during 2081 to 2100 of 8 to 16 mm yr–1 (medium confidence). These ranges are derived from CMIP5 climate projections in combination with process-based models and literature assessment of glacier and ice sheet contributions
