    Re: Bible Belt: leads in divorces, murders, teen pregnancy, and STD infection rates.

    It's kind of funny that the same Evangelical Christians who constantly trumpet "family values" and bash gays for lacking said "family values" also have the highest divorce rate of any group in the country. Much higher then godless aethists or any other religious group. The Bible Belt also has the highest teenage pregnancy rate and a much higher rate of STD infection then the national average. And the murder rates? Well, let's just say those gun toting rednecks rack up impressive kill numbers.
    Atheists don't get married, so they can't divorce.
    Weeny liberals have small penises, so they can't get laid.
    Liberals don't own guns and are wimpy, so they can't hurt anyone.
    Hypocrisy.

    That is all.

      Christians only get divorced so they can git married a'gin. Jeebus would approve.
      God will pr'tekt me from AIDS and gays. STD's? I put that in mah pickup!
      I drank a case o' Coors lite when I shot mah naybur nehboor guy next door, and he always looked like a liberal and he speaks mexican so's I figure it's okay.

        Good arguments for the introduction of gun controil laws,
        so that the wimpy liberals aren´t the only ones who don´t own guns

          So other then claiming that evangelicals who get divorced aren't really evangelicals I haven't heard any explanations (good, bad, or otherwise) as to why evangelicals have the highest divorce rate in America.

            Um... I thought it was quite obvious. Evangelicals are those who tend to get married at a far younger age. Mostly because they are taught that getting married is a good unto itself and sex outside of marriage is a sin. So you'll find many more evangelicals (or other strongly religious types) getting married before they turn 20.

            While others are delaying marriage into the late 20s or early 30s (or beyond).

            Getting married at 18 is going to result in a lot more divorces as people come to the realization that maybe that wasn't a great idea to get married at that age.

              Conspicuous rather than obvious. It makes sense but I wouldn't say it was right without someone kind of statistical evidence.

              That said, Oerdin has already responded to my suggestion of that already so I'm confused as to why he ignored it just a few posts later.

                Of course this leads to a lot of broken families which, along with divorce, evangelicals just love to rail against.

                This is honestly sounding more and more like the gay basher who is secretly in the closet. I.E. what ever we hate about ourselves most we rail against in public. Evangelicals rail against divorce and broken families because they're the biggest creators of both. Evangelical priests rail against gays because they secretly want to take it up the ass.

                      Oerdin walked into that one.

                        I should point out to you that people other than Christians, and evangical ones at that, live in bible belt states (like me ). So besides your first figure, yet another exaggeration/manipulation/fabrication/distortion by Oerdin.

                        So your pitiful attempt to attack Christians fails, yet again. Another childish Oeridin troll goes down in flames

                            You can almost smell the stupid in that post. There is a link in the OP which breaks it down the divorce rate by religious group!

                              Except that link doesn't appear to work. At least not for me.

                                I am an example of one of those "people." Something tells me the couple million Catholics, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Jews, Muslims, and athiests who live in my fine state won't qualify as evangical.

                                Interesting fact of the day to salvage Oerdin's trainwreck of a troll.

                                Until about 1830, South Carolina had the largest population of Jews in North America.
