Catholics comprise approximately 25% of the American adult population, but comprise approximately 60% of the prison population. In total, over 75% of the American adult population claims to be “Christian” of one sort or another.

Atheists, Agnostics, Humanists, Seculars, and No Religion account for approximately 13% of the American adult population, but less than 1/10 of one percent (0.1%) of the prison population.

Sources: American Religious Identification Survey 2001, and Federal Bureau of Prison Statistics.

So…. I give up. Just how is it again that religion teaches and instills moral values? The kind of values religion teaches seem to be the kind that will get you sent to jail.

Embracing atheist, humanist, and secular values seems to be a good way to avoid jail.

Or, maybe we’re just WAY better at not getting caught, non?

All that aside, the kid’s definitely got what it takes to make a great actress.

He tried to get child services involved to go after the parents for child abuse. I believe, just like when he tried to sue Al Franken, pretty much everyone just laughed in his face. Although he did have a few nutjob, drama queen legal analysts on in agreement. It was all very amusing.<br /> <br /> Mysteriously, he didn't show the same outrage over "Jesus Camp".

Mysteriously, he didn’t show the same outrage over “Jesus Camp”.

(I know, I should be flogged for such blasphemous behavior-I thought the game was tomorrow.) Managed to catch the last 10 1/2 minutes of the 4th quarter, and thought we were gonna pull it out. But damn if we didn't manage to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory once again! :( Oh well, makes the rest of January less stressful. podry
