Makes sense. People with more liberal and secular views tend to be on the coasts/big cities where education is more valued. On the other hand, more conservative, Christian folks are in the heartland/mid-west where hard work is valued over education. Not sure if the correlation is more than cultural. Are you gonna tell me next that Europeans tend to be more educated and secular than most of Latin America? If so, that would be some study!
some places people are born where they don't have the option of college and being entrenched in liberal indoctrination and just have to go to work. In these places, people tend to believe in Jesus. Call it hope for a better future, call it ignorance, call it free from brainwash from the secular view of most educational institutions. Call it whatever you want because no one is right and no one is wrong.
I don't know if this story is true, but I heard Benny Hinn came through my city a few years ago and did his "your healed" slap to the forehead of an old lady. She fell backwards and they forgot to catch her, and she broke her leg from the fall. When Hinn couldn't heal her broken leg and whatever else was wrong with her she sued his ass. I guess for false advertising...LOLLOL I when I was 7 I knew Benny Hinn was full of shit. Makes me wonder how people can be so idiotic.
They value education more in the big cities?
Of course. The closer you are to bigger cities determine your statistical advantage of achieving higher education. Average family income is higher the closer you get to cities. Higher incomes correlate directly to higher education. A lot more jobs, as a %, in smaller towns don't require degrees. Not sure what you're getting at with your question, but yes, people tend to be better educated closer to big cities.
