That sounds more like you stumbled into a group that's weird, than out of one tbh.

I mean, maybe I've just been extremely lucky, but I live in a pretty religious area [and, actually, more than one] and I don't think I've run across someone who didn't know the basics like that.

Yeah I was unclear. I realize there are a multitude of different types of "religious" and my extended family falls somewhere on the fringes of Christian fundamentalist.

AYRT

Ah, yeah. The fundies can be...interesting, to say the least.

(Anonymous) 2015-04-08 11:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Dude. They're on the fringes, all right, but I wouldn't say of Christianity. What about the whole "fearfully and wonderfully made" passage, and others like it, that encourages people to study science/nature/the environment, etc. ("Consider the lilies ... clothed finer than Solomon.") The Bible even encourages rational astronomy (and discourages astrology), after all! (Albeit, three-thousand-year-old astronomy, but, eh, you know what I mean.)

Sorry. That's my rant ranted.

Well maybe. There's nothing barring a love of god and of science from existing in the same person (I know, because that more or less describes my SO's younger brother) but it does seem that as a general rule religious faith is inversely proportional to scientific literacy.

At least where I'm from. I can't claim to speak for other cultures.

there's definitely a correlation there but IMO it's a pretty open question as to why
