Societies worse off 'when they have God on their side'
By Ruth Gledhill, Religion Correspondent
<snip>
In general, higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator
correlate with higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early adult
mortality, STD infection rates, teen pregnancy and abortion in the
prosperous democracies.
The United States is almost always the most dysfunctional of the
developing democracies, sometimes spectacularly so.
All decent reasonable people need to oppose the filthy poison of religion.

Naah. These cultures are religious because they have all these problems and
know they need help.
Pat, tending to the "hospital for sinners" view.
