按:一般基督徒長期來受教會洗腦總認為無神論者，是沒有道德的人，但研究顯示

(CNN)一項對34個國家的38000人的大規模調查顯示，生活在富裕國家的受過教育的人，很少會說相信神是良好道德的必要條件。

著名的宗教民調研究中心皮尤，週一公佈的這項調查，揭示了富裕和貧窮國家之間的巨大差距

例如，在肯亞這個全球人均國內生產總值最低的國家，95% 的人認為信仰上帝是一個人道德的必要條件

但在瑞典這個全球非常富裕的國家，只有9% 的人認為信神與良好的道德有關

調查顯示，即使在同一國家內部，富人和窮人在信神與否和道德上也存在分歧

研究報告的作者寫道: “這項調查中包括的新興經濟體的人們往往更加虔誠，更有可能認為宗教在他們的生活中很重要

舉個例子，在美國，高收入和低收入的美國人之間有24個百分點的差距。窮人更傾向於說信神是做好人的必要條件

皮尤的研究似乎支持了世俗化的論點: 隨著人民變得更加富有和受教育程度的提高，人民宗教信仰也會減少

幾十年來，美國一直以富裕和宗教信仰的雙重身份對抗這一理論。但是，根據其他一些研究，這種情況也在改變

在2002年，58% 的美國人認為信仰上帝是成為好人的必要條件。2019年，這一數字下滑只剩下44%

宗教仍然是包括美國在內的世界各地人民生活中的一股強大力量。在34個國家的調查中，有23個國家的大多數人認為宗教對他們來說“非常”或“有點”重要。在美國有47%認為“非常重要”

最有可能將神與良善聯繫在一起的極端落後的國家:

Indonesia: 印度尼西亞: 96%

The Philippines: 菲律賓: 96%

Kenya: 肯尼亞: 95%

Nigeria: 尼日利亞: 93%

Brazil, South Africa Tunisia: 巴西，南非，突尼斯: 84%

最不可能把神和道德綁架在一起的國家

Sweden: 瑞典: 9%

Czech Republic: 1 捷克: 14%

France: 法國: 15%

United Kingdom: 英國: 20%

Netherlands/Spain: 荷蘭與西班牙: 22%

(CNN)Educated people who live in rich countries are far less likely to say belief in God is necessary for good morals, according to a massive new survey of 38,000 people in 34 countries.

The survey, released Monday by the Pew Research Center, revealed a gaping "God gap" between relatively rich and poor countries.

In Kenya, for example, the country with the lowest gross domestic product per capita in the survey, 95% of people said belief in God is necessary for a person to be moral.

In Sweden, the richest country, just 9% of people connected God with good morals. (The survey did not break down respondents by religion.) 。

Even within countries, the rich and poor don't agree on God and morality, the survey said.

In the United States, to take one example, there is a gap of 24 percentage points between high and low income Americans. The poor were much more likely to say belief in God is necessary to be good.

"People in the emerging economies included in this survey tend to be more religious and more likely to consider religion to be important in their lives," wrote the authors of the study. 。”

Pew's study seems to lend weight to the secularization thesis: the idea that nations become less religious as their people get richer and more educated.

For decades, the United States defied this theory by being both rich and religious. But even that is changing, according to a number of other studies.

In 2002, 58% of Americans said belief in God is necessary to be good. In 2019, that number slipped to 44%.

Still, nearly half of Americans say religion is very important to them儘管如此，仍有近半的美國人認為宗教對他們非常重要

Religion remains a powerful force in the life of people around the world, including the United States. A majority of people in 23 of the 34 countries survey said religion is "very" or "somewhat" important to them. In the United States nearly half -- 47% -- called it "very important."
