I'm not saying that you can't be educated and religious at the same time. There are many great men who were very religious and at the same time very educated.
However, on average, the higher your education, the lower chance you are religious, or believe in God.
In fact, in the professions that require the most education and specialization, belief in God drops dramatically. Scientist, who study the world and how it works, are a lot less likely to believe in God.
"A recent survey of members of the National Academy of Sciences showed that 72% are outright atheists, 21% are agnostic and only 7% admit to belief in a personal God."
Why is that so that the less knowledgeable you are about everything, the more likely you are to believe in God? Wouldn't knowing how the world ticks and operates bring you closer to God, since it's his creation? This trend is universal, all over the world.
I'm interested in how Christians, Jews and Muslims are responding to this.
