Philip Schwadel and Sam Hardy wrote in The Conversation about the connection between religion and morals. They studied the question, “When someone quits their religion, does it have a residual effect on their morals?”
They categorized people into “consistently religious,” the “religious dones” and the “consistently nonreligious.” The “religious dones” are people who have left their faith.
When the researchers tested people’s level of morality, they discovered that “religious dones” didn’t score as high as the consistently religious, but they did score higher than the nonreligious.
2 Timothy 3:16 teaches, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.”
Our faith impacts our sense of morality, even after we leave our faith. Why would you ask your co-workers to leave their faith at the door?
