"Hi Adam, I have thought about this too... i would attribute the connection to the fact that for one to be atheist or childfree, such a person would have to be brave enough to go against the tide of popular opinion/practice/norms etc. Ir requires…"

"I agree with B-Girl. There is indeed a correlation between level of education, religiosity, and number of children/no children.

Connection between childfree and godless?
So I belong to a pretty active childfree group on Facebook. It's completely private until you are accepted so people tend to be pretty honest and open on there. It wasn't too long on their discussions before I noticed the trend that while they aren't all atheists, a large number of members don't believe in god.While this could just be a statistical anomaly (I am working with a study base of one group) I was wondering what other people have noticed.
