宗教对犯罪率的影响
更加信仰基督的地方有更多的社会弊病和犯罪。这是格雷戈里。保罗在学术杂志《宗教
与社会》上发表的初步结论，这个杂志是内布拉斯加州一所教会学校的学报。
http://moses.creighton.edu/JRS/2005/2005-11.html
研究表明，基督教统治的美国南部和中西部地区，社会弊端和犯罪更严重，谋杀，性病
，死亡率更高。这项研究还表明，美国的犯罪率和基督徒比例，比其他发达世界国家都
高得多。
无法回避的现实是，基督教的教条更合适一个病态的社会。宗教狂热分子和极端主义比
毒品危害更大。
理性的人认识到基督教神话的荒谬可怜，而基督徒，尤其是福音派，或原教旨主义者，
不过是一些伪君子，用宗教作为武器来贬低他人。

Wendy Doniger 写了一本书，书名是：

这本书在印度被封禁，Publisher: Penguin Press HC
这是世界最CLASSICAL的出版商了吧，在印度的Penguin
子公司被迫收回所有的COPY，这只是一本学术论著。
这种所有发行的书被收回还是非常罕见的。
不知道是否有人知道这回事，这本书，根据评论，就是

但是却亵渎了婆罗门，把婆罗门描绘成好色的本性。。。
把印度教描绘成利用女性和动物的低等宗教。

看待一个古老的东西吧。
