Low level of belief in vampires in US doesn't indicate low levels of magical thinking but that its not centred on vampires? @clayroutledge

Atheism is correlated with the cognitive traits of a skeptic. So it is a predictor. But the correlation isn't super high.
-
But is it so coz God belief is common?Surely not believing in God in a culture with little God-belief indicates nothing?
-
I think that is correct.

Follow-up: Clay, does your research identify cause(s) of apathy?
-
Just a little. We're looking at trait diffs in need for meaning. Would also note some who say they are apathetic aren't really.
-
But some (very few I think) really are. Many who say they are apathetic are highly invested in secular meaning-making ideologies.
-
Yeah. I know many people genuinely apathetic about the god claim. They don't talk about it ever.
