Atheists, agnostics most knowledgeable about religion, survey says
Discuss, reasons for this?If you want to know about God, you might want to talk to an atheist.
Heresy? Perhaps. But a survey that measured Americans' knowledge of religion found that atheists and agnostics knew more, on average, than followers of most major faiths. In fact, the gaps in knowledge among some of the faithful may give new meaning to the term "blind faith."
it would seem logical that the more you know about a given faith system the more "logical holes" and "inconsistencies" you would find that might lead you towards not sharing a faith.
On the other hand can the lack of faith lead one to search out information? Maybe in an effort to enforce one's opinion?
So what came first? the lack of faith or the higher level of information? the chicken or the egg?
