Hmmm...he gets to meet some rather important people!

Just remembering the stats on atheists in prison. So good to know that an increase in secularism results in an incredible decrease in crime. That is heartening. One self effacing atheist blogged that because statistics also show atheists as more intelligent and higher income...that maybe they just don't get caught! Ha! I think it is much more than that!

2% of the population is atheist. But only .07% of the prison population are atheists. ASTOUNDING STATISTICS! Simply by bringing up your kids without a belief in god you automatically make it extremely unlikely they will live an anti-social life and need to be confined for the protection of others!

What great news!

"Of the prisoners willing to give their religious affiliations (and that’s an important caveat), atheists make up 0.07% of the prison population."
