No. There are honest people living in poverty. There are liars and thieves with PhD's. I know someone whose father had a PhD in chemistry and he robbed a bank. College faculty members have murdered their colleagues. A doctor was caught trying to seduce a teenager online on one of those investigative journalism shows I saw on TV the other night. I believe morality has to due with an ability to be selfless. One major source of that ability is salvation in Jesus Christ.

I don't think so dog sneeze. I think it has more to do with how they were raise and the morals that they were taught. I know some people that have a college education that have no morals at all. I also know some people that only have a high school education that have very good morals.

Not that I can see. Lack of morality is indicated in the uneducated and persons who have obtained multiple degrees. Compare Mr. Skilling to the average schmoe that rips off convenience stores. It might seem that way, but the number of people who have little education vastly outweighs the number of people who have a lot of it clouds the issue.

No there isn't. Nor is there any correlation between one's social standing or income. Believing in God does not make you an idiot anymore than being an athiest make you a mean spirited hateful old grump.

If our prison populations are an indicator than yes. Additionally the same correlation would most likely apply to atheist and education level.

Yes. In constant study and learning, one will correct himself and do away with the things he has found to be morally wrong.
For example, By studying the Bible, I constantly find the inconsistencies of my life and correct myself. The connection between a constant learning and correcting of morality leads to my spiritual growth.

Not at all. A few of the kindest and gentlest souls I ever met had very little formal education.
