OUCH!

Steve Sailer shatters a lot of myths of the left.

This includes the myth that Christian fundamentalism hasn't improved morals much, as evidenced by the higher rates of crime, illegitimacy, etc. in the Bible belt.

Why do these Christian areas have so many more of these problems?

"That's mostly because the South has a lot more blacks than the rest of the country, who are much more prone to a variety of social ills. What is methodologically correct is to make black-to-black and white-to-white comparisons."

Of course, a lot of people would think that this is a racist thing to say - funny, though, how using the same stats to disparage Christianity isn't considered bigoted...

That is all.
