Would people with higher education be more likely to believe in creation according to church teaching or be swayed by scientific explanations for our existence? the ancient greeks were highly scientific in their thinking yet they accepted paul's message that built faith and belief upon a scientific/ philosophical base. today's scientists are significant in numbers who are atheists. they are advocating their own views that deny the existence of a higher power. provide the reason why you believe in the church or the perspectives of an atheist (there are about 34 percent who claim they are atheists today.)

science

Explanation:

Multiple studies have found a strong correlation between the level of education of an individual and the merit they lend personally to the scientific discoveries that reveal answers to some of the questions regarding our existence.

People with lesser education are more inclined to believe a creationist argument not because they are less intelligent, but because have not studied enough science to be exposed to and understand current theories.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
