Hello, Spasms, and welcome!
​
I'm interested in knowing whether most Americans believe Ken Ham's statement that dinosaurs lived among men and that the Earth is indeed only 6,000 years old.
​
Well, we have 44% of adult Americans in a 2004 National Science Foundation survey (pdf, one page) that agreed with "Human beings are developed from earlier species of animals." And Newsweek had a poll last month where 48% of adults agreed with "God created humans pretty much in the present form at one time within the last 10,000 years or so." Science and Nature
​
Of course, 29% of the folks in the NSF poll said that the Sun goes around the Earth, so maybe half of evolution-deniers apparently slept through every single science class from 3rd grade onwards. And watch only Pro Wrestling on TV.

Re: Another Viewpoint
From your link, RAZD:
Almost 2/3 of America’s population can drive to Cincinnati in one day (within a 650-mile drive)!
​
Well, your definition of "almost" may vary.

DEFCON has a "tract" by Lawrence Krauss debunking the museum's BS. It's all familiar stuff to most of us here, but it's a decent tool for the fence-sitters going to the place.
pdf is at http://www.defconamerica.org/...um/creation_museum_guide.pdf
