"Nope, I have seen studies showing quite clearly that the more years an originally devout Christian (or member of another faith) spends in schooling the more likely they are to become agnostic or atheist."

That just shows that years of atheist indoctrination weakens the faith young acolytes. The modern university system was created by the Christian church (and perverted by the atheistic academia) so I don't believe there is any inherent link between true intellectual education and a weakening of the faith.

I agree. I was speaking of what IS, not of what must necessarily be.
