BELTRAN, William Mauricio y RODRIGUEZ-VARGAS, Ferney Yesyd. Religious Beliefs of Students from Public Schools in Bogota. CS [online]. 2022, n.37, pp.203-251. Epub 15-Sep-2022. ISSN 2011-0324. https://doi.org/10.18046/recs.i37.5090.
The article presents the results of a quantitative research that aimed to characterize young people from Bogotá, who study in public schools, regarding their religious identity, practices and beliefs; the subjective importance they give to religion; and the perceived conflicts between the latter and science. Through descriptive statistics, the article presents and interprets the data provided by a survey applied in 2019 to a random sample of students enrolled in the last grade in public schools of Bogotá. The following findings stand out: the high percentage of young people who no longer identify with Catholicism; and those who, although they have religious beliefs, are not part of a church or community of worshippers. Additionally, data indicate that religious identity, religious beliefs, participation in religious rites, and the frequency of conflicts between religious beliefs and scientific explanations vary with respect to young people's sex and gender identity.
