What other stupid things can you find that American's believe?
Quote:Half of Americans believe that Judaism did not come before Christianity. Understandable. It's not like there's the concept of "old testament" vs. "new testament" to clarify.
2. Sun Revolves Around The Earth
Quote:I know Americans have a tendency to be a bit self-involved, but this is a bit much. According to a Gallup poll in 1999, 18% believed that the earth was the center of the universe. On a side note, 3% said "no opinion." Those folks could not be bothered with such pedestrian quandaries.
3. Who'd We Win Our Freedom From? Not England.
Quote: A Gallup poll shows that 1 in 4 Americans believe we won our independence from a country OTHER than Great Britain. Many people said France. Others said China. China! I'll let that sink in. China! Gonna repeat it a few times. China! Nothing against China(!), but China?(!)http://www.funnyordie.com/lists/1750272a..._documents (click here for the full list)
