Description

The comic features a graph illustrating the relationship between "Belief in a Higher Power" on the vertical axis and "Scientific Education" on the horizontal axis.

• The vertical axis is labeled "Belief in a Higher Power," with values decreasing from top to bottom.
• The horizontal axis is labeled "Scientific Education," increasing from left to right.

The curve starts high on the left side and sharply decreases as it moves rightward, indicating a drop in belief as scientific education increases.

Three points along the curve have annotations:

1. At a higher point on the curve, it states, “HOW CAN THAT BE?”
2. Lower down, it states, “OH, THAT’S HOW,” indicating a transition in understanding related to education.

The curve dips below the axis, showing that belief continues to decrease with continued scientific education.
