What don't you understand??? Elmira reformatory overshadowed all, with nearly 31,000 inmates, including 15,694 Catholics (half), and 10,968 Protestants, 4,000 Jews, 325 refusing to answer, and 0 unbelievers. In the East, over 64% of inmates are Catholics. In the national prison population they average 50%. A national census found Catholics 15%. They count from the diaper up. Hardly 12% are old enough to commit a crime. Half of these are women. That leaves an adult Catholic population of 6% supplying 50% of the prison population. Liverpool, England produces three percent as many young criminals as Birmingham, a larger city, 28% coming from Catholic schools. What does this tell you about claims that religion is the guardian of morals? * 52% of people belong to no church, yet live clean lives and supply less than 1% of the total criminal population. So much for religious indoctrination." All you do is mutter "Mexicans" out of one corner of your mouth and "racist" out of the other. One Hell of a great argument!!
