You proved a point by making up statistics and asking to be proved wrong?  What point was that exactly?

I wonder if the low number of atheists in prison has anything to do with the fact about 90 percent of the country believes in God? 

[Agnostic007]

Well, I remember reading when I was looking for some stats about prison populations, that the % of atheist in prison was low compared to the number of atheists in the population. but.. I dunno
