The Prague Monitor website reports today (September 27, 2011) that three-quarters of Czech students are interested in spirituality and more than half of secondary pupils are "seekers," according to a May poll conducted on 7,000 students for the Academy for Young Christians that was released yesterday.
The young say, however, that the church and church-going are relics of the past, and that religion brings neither happiness nor freedom.
The Czech Republic is referred to as one of the most atheistic countries in the world.
About 17 percent of the students can be marked as atheists and 7 percent as Christian believers, according to the poll.
