Hmmm. What does a poll like this one really indicate? "Francis Collins, former head of the Human Genome Project (and onetime atheist), rejects the notion that science is sufficient to disprove the existence of God. Biologist Richard Dawkins, aka Darwin's Rottweiler, insists that anyone who believes in an omnipotent creator is suffering a 'delusion.' Can the gloves of God defeat the punch of proof? "
The readership will determine the result. I would guess that the people who read Wired are more likely to have a certain opinion already on the issue. So all this is doing is registering the relative plausibility of the statements to a largely atheist/agnostic constituency. Interesting, though, to look at the figures for each statement.
