It can be that protestantism is increasing and catholicism decreasing and this could be good.

Voting is not a right but an obligation. In this case if voting would decrease would give a heads up to the governing elites. Then voting decreasing could be a good thing.

There are more people involved in religion and they tend to drink less. Punish they kids if they go out of the line. Are more serious on treating their daily lives.

And this is affecting mostly the poor -who is a lot of people down here.

We have many servants in our two buildings. Cleaning people andsecurity. We organized a Xmas lunch for them and their families.

I wanted to bring a bottle of wine, my wife says: "Those guys don't drink and may even frown if you do"

I brought and drunk it and the only people drinking caipirinha were the tenants no one of the staff drunk anything but coke!

The football players used to drink, end up in jail once in a while. Womanize. And ended up in poverty. Today they remove the shirt when celebrating and there is the white T-shirt: "Christ Athlete" "I love Christ".

I start already thinking that this is going too far:
At the end of a big championship when they win, they knee on the pit and play all together hand in hand.

This is not for me or you, but for the poor people may be it is better they are goign protestant and living catholicism.

Is it fact that intelligence is increasing? This is not apparent judging by the ideas exposed by the participants.

Indeed, I meant to say that he thinks that wealth (or affluence) is correlated with intelligence. Am I losing it?
