To a first approximation, all biologists believe in evolution.

Hm. I'm not sure how many biologists there are, but my guess is this allows for uncertainty on the order of a million biologists. Is the situation really that bad? I would have guessed that at least to a third approximation all biologists believe in evolution.

Yes, but my "nth approximation" module only has settings for "zeroth" and "first".
