      The article talks about Catholics and Protestants only. It would be interesting to see, how the other major religions do in comparison.

      Over half of the residents believe in a higher power, which to me translates to some sort of god. More interesting is the around 5% of people that don’t believe in science at all… how is that even possible?

      And how many teachers are part of a Freikirche? Might be more relevant.

      I often met people in my age (millenial gen) who grew up atheists because their parents mostly focused on boomer things and left anything spiritual to the realm of the « poor, dumb people », or the famous opium-addicted people.

      However, those people (myself included, as I was an atheist by lack of having an opinion and wanting to fit in my generational 9gaggy reject religion vibe) seem to have had a shift in perception in the last year, and whenever talking privately – even with IT directors of a big tech company – it fascinating how they sometimes mention « something weird.. » and their own encounter with the numinous.

      I don’t believe in one god or religion, I’m convinced that there is a thing like a God (which is more a word to represent some sort of cosmic consciousness) and that sea of potential has been tapped in by all religions for a reason. I think the aspect of seeing religion as a evolutionary technology fascinating.

      I’m the kind of guy who devored Dawkins content until my late 20ies, until understanding that his mind was frustratingly stuck on the scientific paradigm when trying to go beyond his technical lecture of religious text.

      Overall – I know this belief in « something » is still by far a minority in Western countries, and tends to be put under the hood of psychedelic communities wackos. Yet, I’m pleasantly surprised that we seem to be heading towards a new vision to look at religion(s) and the concept of the « divine » from humans.’
