大量的研究表明,对宗教的接受程度随着受教育程度的提高而降低。比如说这篇文章:
The Effect of Education on Religion: Evidence from Compulsory Schooling Laws
abstract:
"For over a century, social scientists have debated how educational attainment impacts religious belief. In this paper, I use Canadian compulsory schooling laws to identify the relationship between completed schooling and later religiosity. I find that higher levels of education lead to lower levels of religious participation later in life. An additional year of education leads to a 4-percentage-point decline in the likelihood that an individual identifies with any religious tradition; the estimates suggest that increases in schooling can explain most of the large rise in non-affiliation in Canada in recent decades."
结论是每多增加一年的教育,接受任何宗教的几率就会下降4%。
在最顶尖的科学家里,接受宗教的比例极少。比如说这篇Nature的Correspondence:

" Biological scientists had the lowest rate of belief (5.5% in God, 7.1% in immortality), with physicists and astronomers slightly higher (7.5% in God, 7.5% in immortality)"
在接受采访的美国科学院(National Academy of Sciences)的科学家里,只有7%的人相信god,其中生物学家相信god的最少,占5.5%,物理学家相信god的只占7.5%。 |
