Mildly Interesting

Feels like they polled an elementary school in Jersey

You mean the state with the highest ranked Pre-K-12 by US News and World Report? That Jersey?

Errr, I mean "Lol Jersey sucks amirite?"

It's called propaganda! Relentless, unceasing bombardment of right wing brain rotting propaganda.

~~There are some errors in the "correct" numbers For example, note that the respondents estimated that 89% of Americans have a high school diploma or higher. Yet the chart says the real figure is 65%. But doesn't that seem odd to you? Do you think on average 35% of people drop out of high school?~~

~~No, the source of this error is that the question is poorly worded. 90% of Americans 25 or older have a college degree. The graphic indicates the poll asked specifically about adults. And it seems the respondents had the correct answer, about 90%.~~

~~I don't know where they get the figure that only 65% of adults have a high school degree. My best estimate is that they mixed up "the percentage of adults with a high school degree" and "the percent of people with a high school degree." The latter would count all current K12 students, as they obviously don't have their diploma yet.~~

~~This is one item that really stood as an obvious and glaring error. And if I can see this one, I wonder if other numbers in either the 'correct' responses or the respondents' results are just due to poor or incorrect phrasing/interpretation of questions.~~

I have two master's degrees, have spent years teaching undergraduate engineering courses, am working on a dual-major PhD in engineering...and I...apparently...cannot read a plot.

I know Americans love Jesus a whole lot but really only 4%. That just seems crazy low

Being part of a Religion has social benefits, so don't be surprised if a lot of those non-Atheists don't trully believe it but participate in it because it's good for them or because of social pressure.

Certainly, and speaking in terms of Christians which is the ones I'm more familiar with, considering the number of people who actual strictly even just try to follow ALL the teachings of Jesus or even all of the 10 commandments, almost all "Religious" people pick and chose which parts they believe and which they don't.

(In modern society Greed and Envy by themselves are probably regularly broken by 99% of Christians).

I think you are overestimating the intelligence required to get a degree in this country, also lots of intelligent people have religious beliefs of some level.

And most people who don't necessarily believe in god or practice any religion still respond to such questions with whatever religion they were born into because it's not important enough to them to take a hard stance like calling themselves atheist, or maybe they choose to be agnostic so they might not pick the atheist option.

My point is lots of factors go into surveys like these, they don't necessarily paint a super accurate picture, since any type of survey will have some external and internal biases and sampling issues baked into them

What's not represented in the graph.. I think you'll find a large portion of agnostics and "cultural Christians". I.e. people who go to church because they're raised that way in their community expects it.

Large cities and rich people heavily skew both the average and median cost for housing. It's not cheap, but there's plenty of smaller cities and towns that have affordable options.

You don't need a license to own a car. You need one to drive it.
