Highly educated Mormons attend church weekly at high rates
Original: 86% of Mormons with bachelor’s or higher go to church weekly. That didn't surprise this reporter
A new report finds that 86% of Mormons, or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, who hold a bachelor's degree or higher attend church weekly. The figure stands out because highly educated Americans across most religious groups tend to attend religious services less often, making Latter-day Saints a notable exception, and a reporter covering the story said the number did not surprise her.
Why now: The finding contradicts the broader trend of education correlating with lower religious attendance in the United States.
