Is it time yet for the monthly CP religion thread?
Quote:
The survey found atheists and agnostics to be more knowledgeable about religion than Protestants and Catholics.
People in the South – the Bible Belt – tended to score lower on the survey than those in other regions.
[...]
The survey found that most American Protestants don't know Martin Luther inspired the Protestant Reformation.
Forty-five percent of American Catholics are unaware Catholicism teaches that bread and wine literally become the body and blood of Christ during communion, the survey showed.
[...]
Not surprisingly, the survey found that respondents' level of education had a big role in how they did answering the questions.
But even controlling for education and other key demographic traits, atheists and agnostics, Jews, and Mormons knew more than other groups.
