Q1: Are there more female or male believers?

Question

... or the same?

Another Q. (They cost points!):
Q2.
Do some countrties have more believers than others? Are there athiest countries or countries where almost everyone believes ?
Q3:
Do younger people believe more or less than older people? Does it depend on age? why?

Answer 1

Are you asking for believers in God, or believers in Christianity?
I think, in general, that women are raised to be more into thier feelings than men, and therefore, more likely to believe in God, as men are nurtured and rewarded for being "rational", and "logical"
There are countries that are "officially" athiest, but in reality when you get down to the average person on the street, they feel otherwise, regardless of the government mandate, and do thier thing in secrecy...
I don't think that younger people believe in God any less than older people, but they may see thier belief in different ways than thier elders, or go about acknowledging thier beliefs in ways that differ from what thier elders are familiar with...

Answer 2

1. Famale.

2. Yes. There are countries of both, but mostly religious. America is a place where lack of religion is very small (<15%). Europe has a greater rate of nonbelievers than the US. http://www.adherents.com/

3. Younger people are beginning to believe less. It doesn't depend on age, but the way society is abandoning the idea of God more and more, while the older people who have always believed are sticking with their beliefs.

Answer 3

Not really....=>Q1
there are more female believers in the older generations(like my grans')

Q2: some countries do have more believers. I don't think that there are atheist countries

Finally Q3: Well,,,,,, younger people do believe but are not totally living/ practicing any form of religion.
thing is they concentrate too much on "the here and now"

Answer 4

Older people are better brainwashed. The new generations have less religous control in their lives. And more knowledge.
Communist countries are atheist, and in most countries the majority do believe. No idea about male or female, although that would be a reflection of population instead of religion.

Answer 5

1. I don't know, but guess about equal.
2. Yes. Some countries are mostly non-Christian. That is why missionaries are sent to them.
3. I think the younger (Generally) are less likely to believe. I think younger don't consider mortality.

Answer 6

what do you mean they cost points? for you maybe...

1) depends on the denomination, but usually, there tend to be more females (except for I think in Catholic circles)

2) European, South American, and North American countries tend to have the highest percentage of people who claim Jesus as Christ. I think China has the highest Christian percentage in Asia, and I can't remember which one, but I think central African nations usually have a high percentage count as well.

3) generally the older. now adays, (or atleast in North America) Christianity is not encouraged. Older people generally grew up in a slightly different society, where they not only strongly adhered to the "train up a child in the way he should go" principle, but they enforced Christian values. And no, belief doesn't depend on age.

Answer 7

Don't know for sure, but it seems pretty even to me.

Yep. Europe in general has a lot of non-believers and it is possibly as high as 80% in Sweden

Again, don't know for sure but I would guess yes by a slim margin

The only good strong tie that I have seen is education. The more educated you are the more likely that you don't believe.

Answer 8

dont know about males vs. females, but i would think its a close number

yes, some countries are going to be more of one religion, some have freedom of religion, like the u.s., some are controled, and are told to be a certaim religion, some will have little or no religion, due to lack of exposure to the gpspel, or religion in general.

i think that younger people are more likely to belive, because tehy have gone threw less of life and are thus less resistent to believing. but im not sure on that.

Answer 9

the answer to your second question (I would have to look it up before answering the first and third) is yes, middle eastern countries, the United States, and Mexico, and quite a bit of the third world countries have more believers then say European Countries do.

Answer 10

1. that would depend on what they were believing in....
2. again, depends on what they are 'believing' in
3. same answer... depends on what they are believing in

if it is God... I think younger (10 years or younger) believe more... with a childlike faith...
