Do you think that there are a lot of religious people who live in Lawrence?
Asked at Tower Plaza, 2540 Iowa on November 15, 2004
“I would say no, at least not in the groups I find myself in.”
— Eric Lackey, data entry clerk, Lawrence
“Yes I do. I think that college towns foster thinking about those kind of things. Even if it is not your mom and dad's religion, it leads people to think about what they believe.”
— Dan Truesdale, client service representative, Lawrence
“No. Less than the national average. I would guess that a third of the community are college students, and students tend to be atheists or agnostics. They are at the age where they question their religious values.”
— Daryl Quick, Kansas University senior, Lawrence
“I wouldn't say that they are especially religious. It's probably about average.”
— Kathy Bechtel, decorative painter, Lawrence
