I saw a post on Facebook purporting the evils of religion. It was saying people who are religious are more racist, more adulterous, more divorces, more murderous etc etc. (I wish I could find it again so I could include the whole list, it was really long) The bottom line was religion made you a worse person rather than a better person. (I wanted to find it again so I could respond. This is what I would have said.)
I know, from my psephology days, that you can manipulate data to say what you want. You can manipulate the sample, the people you are sampling, and even the questions. I don't know their process, nor do I know the pool, so in the end this data doesn't mean much.
What I do know I know is religion is personal. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I live it and love it. For me religion has made me a better person. I am kinder, I find peace in the eternal nature of families. I find peace in the feelings of the Spirit in my heart. K
nowing that the family is eternal, and that the sealing powers have been restored, brings me love and peace.
