23:05Now PlayingA recent study published in the academic journal Social Psychological and Personality Science revealed that the strongest predictor of adulthood atheism is the lack of credible displays of religious behavior and imagery of faith in one's childhood. The study sought to examine and compare three common theoretical approaches to understanding religion and disbelief; known as the Secularization, Cognitive Byproduct, and Dual Inheritance frameworks. The study found that the Dual Inheritance framework, which highlights the importance of cultural learning, was the most consistent in predicting atheism. This evidence contradicts many atheists' beliefs about how they left religion, mainly that their deconversion resulted from analytic and rational thinking. To quote the article, "...this work suggests that if you are guessing whether or not individuals are believers or atheists, you are better-off knowing how their parents behaved."
