funny how the Founding Fathers addressed that — separation of church and state, and all that — and GOPers, MAGAts and half-crazed, evangelical zealots have assiduously ignored it.

There is a world-wide trend of declining #religiosity, excluding Muslim dominant countries... for more than 2 decades now.

#Drop in U.S. #Religiosity Among #Largest in World
The #17-point drop in the percentage of U.S. adults who say #religion is an important part of their daily life — from 66% in 2015 to 49% today — ranks among the largest #Gallup has recorded in any country over any 10-year period since 2007.
“On the traditional/secular dimension, the United States ranks far below other rich societies, with levels of religiosity and national pride comparable with those found in some developing societies.”https://www.worldvaluessurvey.org/WVSContents.jsp Fake #religiosity

New AJDAA study finds cultural values such as #religiosity and ethnic identity—with respect to both exploring one’s identity and feeling positively about one’s identity—are related to lower #alcohol and #cannabis use among #ArabAmerican college students. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
It goes to show how deeply delusional some people get - especially if the delusions are undergirded by ⛪️ #religiosity.
Can Schools Change Religious Attitudes? Evidence from German State Reforms of Compulsory Religious Education Benjamin W. Arold, Ludger Woessmann and Larissa Zierow We study whether compulsory religious education in schools affects students’ religiosity as adults. We exploit the staggered termination of compulsory religious education across German states in models with state and cohort fixed effects. Using three different datasets, we find that a reform abolishing compulsory religious education significantly reduced the religiosity of affected students in adulthood. It also reduced the religious actions of personal prayer, church-going, and church membership. Beyond religious attitudes, and consistent with a shift towards worldly norms and economic activities, the reform led to higher labor-market participation and earnings. By contrast, the reform did not affect ethical and political values or non-religious school outcomes.
Can schools change faith? Benjamin Arold, @woessmann.bsky.social & Larissa Zierow find that ending mandatory #ReligiousEducation reduces adult #religiosity by 7%. Students earn more, work longer hours, but pray less and skip church.

For a president who recently wondered aloud whether he might get into heaven, the comments provided a notable mark of public #religiosity.
And for a country that has long had leaders who adhered to a separation of church and state

In other words, those 1. #stupid people suffering from the 2. #religiosity which has already scrambled fact/fiction.
Their sad fundamental world view is that they are earthly agents of a wrathful and domineering ultimate power.
This fits in perfectly well with bowing down to #dictatorship.

#Religiosity is mostly unrelated to #Islamophobia, nativism, right-wing authoritarianism, and #populism. But Islamophobia overlaps with both nativism and authoritarianism. So: people who fear immigration and want strict laws/harsh enforcement 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 tend to reject Islam, but not for religious reasons.

With 2022 Statistics Canada General Social Survey data, we can now get a better picture of how #religiosity trends evolved in #Canada over the #pandemic years. Rates of engaging in a #religious or #spiritual activity on one's own stayed pretty stable over the 2018-2022 period.

After some wrangling #ChatGPT gave me some decent ANTI #extremist #memes to satisfy this #agnostic #Aetheist I’m a little tired of the world being threatened by #religiosity based hate!

The belief that one human being is better simply because of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, or where their crib was located is a fallacy.
