Pray tell, which, Hooah? I don't agree with your "groups" and how you grouped them together. To be honest, I didn't read your post past group two.Mythology is what we call someone else’s religion. Joseph Campbell

A Clash of Cultures in the Holy Land
Ultra-Orthodox Jewish groups in Israel would like to see gender separation in public, and some have stooped to harassing women -- and even children -- to get their way. With thousands of Israelis protesting against the growing influence of the super-religious, the rift in Israeli society is getting deeper. They have god on their side and they are all for equality.......Mythology is what we call someone else’s religion. Joseph Campbell |

Pray tell, which, Hooah? The vast majority of imprisoned felons in the U.S. are self-professed Christians, not atheists or Muslims or voodoo practitioners. The vast majority of pedophiles are, aside from their predatory acts upon children, straight white men, not gay men or lesbians. Many of them are parents; more than a few have been preachers (not just priests) or active in their local churches. You've diced your brain up into tidy little boxes that contain almost nothing of the real world."If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you can collect a lot of heads."

For starters, you forgot child raping priests in any of your groups so how can we adequately assess any of them?

Group two. Rabble rousing pleasure seeking, non-working ne-er go to church, ne-er read a Bible, bunny hopper sex practitioners of about any and all who one can entice, regular bar customers, pot smoking, street occupiers, infrequently home, etc. Group three: Shariah practicing, go-by-the Koran, Haddith & Sunnahs, majority in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, etc, Group four: Old Soviet Union leaders, police, atheistic minded military, politician, non church going, secularistic, etc. Group five. Secularist college student Group six: Mexican RRC oriented, non-Biblicalistic, city dweller Group seven: Wall Street Occupiers Group eight: Gay rightists seeking marriage perks, etc Group nine: Ultra liberal Democrats Group ten: RCC/Voodoo practicing Haitian etc. Group eleven. Folks who use vulgar and rough speech, cursing, etc. or folks who never curse, never practice what would be considered rough and vulgar speech. So on and so forth. Either you are telling deliberate malicious lies, or you are very ignorant about people. Assuming the latter, I suggest that you get out more and try to meet and have conversations with a wider variety of people.Jesus was a liberal hippie

Hooah, which one of these groups would have an equal or higher incidence of doing harm to someone, theft, murder, arrests, living in poverty, dependent on government perks, etc rather than providing for themselves, non productive, getting in scraps, fights, violent acts etc, etc? Which of these groups of people is more likely to have a member who would bomb an abortion clinic, the 1996 Olympics, a church with four nine year old girls attending Sunday school, or to lynch a black man for whistling at a white woman, author the Turner diaries, have sex with underage male parish members while operating a ministry aimed at converting homosexuals to heterosexuals, bilk millions of dollars out of followers with a time share pyramid scheme, . Of course after they do these things, we decide that they were never real Christians.
