You would think that on issues that should be politically neutral (like climate change and evolution) there would be tendency for the views of political liberals and conservatives to converge with increasing education as the essential facts and arguments become better understood. And in general, you would be right, except for the US. Here it seems that ideology trumps facts and reason.

Unfortunately, it seems that there is absolutely nothing that is politically neutral anymore. Breastfeeding, childhood obesity, etc…it’s all political these days.

There are poor Democrats who are staunch creationists; I think that beliefs in creationism are really tied to education level and religious beliefs.
