"Why doesn't America believe in evolution?" - NewScientist.com

[Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home.]

The main opposition to evolution comes from fundamentalist Christians, who are much more abundant in the US than in Europe. While Catholics, European Protestants and so-called mainstream US Protestants consider the biblical account of creation as a metaphor, fundamentalists take the Bible literally, leading them to believe that the Earth and humans were created only 6000 years ago.

If "fundamentalists" are outside of the "so-called mainstream US Protestants" then why is America split on the subject of evolution?  It seems to me that the results of the survey  convey a different story: rejecting evolution is a very mainstream belief among US Protestants.

for instance how about that Gauss's law is used to calculate magnetic flux(it's really for calculating electric flux)

Not sure I agree with this, though it has been many years since I studied Maxwell's equations.  But I do still have my Applied Electromagnetism book.  I would think you could use it to calculate the magnetic flux, but you'd always come up with a value of zero for the net flux.

I just took physics 2, electromagnetism, and I'm pretty sure you can't. I know magnetic flux is involved, but I don't think the equations interact that way. Anyways, I was more talking at the basic idea of what Gauss's law is - that is the electric field times the area it goes through equals the electric flux.

i think you've learned just enough to be dangerous. 

Gauss' law does apply to magnetic flux, but the net is always zero, meaning magnetic monopoles don't exist.  Whereas the net electric charge on a surface caused by electric monopoles (electrons) leads to an net electric flux, the absence of magnetic monopoles leads to a net magnetic flux of zero.
