No-one under 25 in iceland believes god created the universe

According to this poll.


http://churchandstate.org.uk/2017/01/0-0...l-reveals/

Quote:Iceland seems to be on its way to becoming an even more secular nation, according to a new poll. Less than half of Icelanders claim they are religious and more than 40% of young Icelanders identify as atheist. Remarkably the poll failed to find young Icelanders who accept the creation story of the Bible. 93.9% of Icelanders younger than 25 believed the world was created in the big bang, 6.1% either had no opinion or thought it had come into existence through some other means and 0.0% believed it had been created by God.

But many still believe in elves.

I wonder if the under 25s do.

That wasn't part of this poll

Doesn’t say much for humanity when the least objectionable of them had to maroon themselves on a desolate volcanic island near arctic latitudes for a 1000 years to get that way.

Japan has the same isolation and strong economy, which also allowed them to avoid religion.

They avoided Christianity, but they didn’t avoid religion.
