That's not what it said. What it said was, the higher the level of education, the less religious a person is *likely* to be. Among the PhD and whatnot I know, I've certainly found that to be true... but my and your person experiences are mere anecdotes. What do the national stats say?

What I wonder most of all is whether this was always the case, if it is actually the case now. Once upon a time, higher education did not show the disdain for religion that they have now, and did not actively seek to discredit it. Given the level of indoctrination that goes on in higher education now, perhaps the drop in religiousness is more indicative of the effectiveness of anti-religion propaganda than of progress toward any real truth.
