Why would you call bullshit? Just google any poll about what % of Americans believe in God and i'm sure every single poll will show that a greater % of African Americans believe in God than caucasians. You will also most likely see a correlation between education and belief in God. Just think about it, the higher level of education you have the more likely you're thinking questioning things and trying to figure out the truth, and the more you think about things, if you're a logical and reasonable person, the more likely you will come to the conclusion, that religions are basically a hoax in terms of a higher power having directly influenced the writings and teachings. If you can justify sacrificing lambs or stoning a woman to death who has just been raped, and is actually an innocent victim, that's totally up to you, I cannot do that any longer. I respect all of your opinions, i'm not saying i'm right or you're wrong, Just we have different opinions. So basically I'm attempting to explain to you how I come to my conclusions as to what the most likely possibility is in my mind with this post.

I really am shocked people are like attacking my posts, it's just my opinion that I feel is the most likely scenario and the most important aspect in my work is to figure out what direction the odds deem to be the highest probability of truth. I respect everyone's beliefs, I care a lot about every human being, i'm not out to disrespect or hurt anyone's feelings sure i may make generalizations, such as African Americans havea higher propensity to believe in God, as well as people with a higher level of education. You must first analyze data to come up with the best possible answer to the question. So basically to break it down, in general African Americans, have less money and get less education than the rest of America. So my conclusion based not only on statistics but logic and reason as well is that they on average grow up with more hardships, less financial security and a smaller chance to advance in school, which really is what allows your intellectual capacity to grow, it's as simple as that. All of these are generalizations yes, you can't have statistics on different races or levels of education without generalizing the particular statistic you are highlighting. I'm looking forward to a response from you guys and I hope we've reached an understanding that i'm not trying to call any group of people out, simply trying to deduce how different povery levels, and levels of education affect people's beliefs in religion and God etc
=].

Just looked up this poll this was really the only one i could find tbh, let me know if there are other ones. I hope I've explained myself throughly here because I care about each individual person that I know, regardless of the mistakes they make or how they're born, I probabaly care too much.
