One in five Germans does not believe that man comes from the monkeys. The proportion between Catholics and older than forty-five years increases.
One in five Germans does not believe that man comes from the monkeys.
Last March, the Allensbach Institute of Opinion Studies interviewed 1,112 Germans. When asked if human beings and monkeys believed they had the same ancestors, the answer was: 21% refused, 62% did and 17% did not know.
The proportion of those who did not believe it was 27% among Catholics and 17% among Protestants. Age also affects the attitude. 29% of those over 45 did not believe it.
However, the situation improves. When the same question was raised in 1970, 40% rejected that humans and monkeys shared the same ancestor.
