Maybe some folks interpided the question as "Is modern man 10,000 years old or less"?
religion is going to doom us all.

THis is really why populism is dead. If you'll look at the poll, the disbelief in evolution is heavily concetrated amongst women, the uneducated, and the poor.
Beliefs elsewhere in the world:
Belief in creation science seems to be largely a U.S. phenomenon among countries the West. A British survey of 103 Roman Catholic priests, Anglican bishops and Protestant ministers/pastors showed that:
bullet 97% do not believe the world was created in six days.
bullet 80% do not believe in the existence of Adam and Eve. 4
Adam and Eve is a very difficult pill to swallow for those of us who are not of those religions who have that story...
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Populism isn't dead. Your implied correlation is fantastical and nonexistent. Populism has to do with the belief that the people are being suppressed by a conspiracy of powerful elites using the systems of government and business to concentrate and maintain their own power at the expense of others. And that's pretty much the truth.
Yeah, thanks for taking care of Vietnam for me. I guess now I have to be punished for saying these things. Land of the free after all. Anyone who doesn't like it just needs to be disposed of.
We have more freedoms than anyone in the world, except for the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Britian, Germany, Norway, Luxembourg, Monaco, Japan, South Korean, Taiwanese... and about thirty others. Gosh, you guys did so much for us, like destroy everything that the founders erronously wanted to include in our nation.
