The Social Consequences Of Reading The Bible
July 18th, 2011 § Leave a Comment
The Huffington Post had an interesting bit that looked at a study from a researcher at Baylor University. The study found that people’s attitudes towards social justice is more favorable the more time they spend reading the Bible.
The likelihood of Christians saying it is important to actively seek social and economic justice to be a good person increased 39 percent with each jump up the ladder of the frequency of reading Scripture, from reading the Bible less than once a year to no more than once a month to about weekly to several times a week or more
Maybe there is some hope for us yet.
