So, why is the US the most religious country in the West?

Oh sorry!  I didn't read the whole thread

The worry/anxiety of where your next meal is coming from or if you'll be able to pay your rent may be diminished, but other worries/anxieties may be increased in a wealthy person.

Yep. Once you get more money, you will have people trying to take what you've earned. And, it ain't that hard for rich people to be poor again.

The higher test scores have ZILCH to do with the presence or absence of religion. It has everything to do with their focus and emphasis on education and discipline within schools.

Plus, you forgot about those Arab countries that also dominate us on those tests, with HUGE religiosity within its borders. In fact, wasn't another atheist blowhard, who whined about engineers, while making some correlation between a number of Muslim terorists, who happened to be engineers?

In case you forgot, some of America's most prestigious schools WERE FOUNDED by churches (I believe I pointed that out, the last time you spouted such silliness). And what of all them Jewish folks, who some complain about dominating banks and media?

I'm sorry.

I take it all back.

Please pray for me.

Prayer works.
