I offered some stats I found for that thread. Dave must have not liked them.

Here are the results of a Fall 1995 Gallup poll:

Percentage of respondents who agreed with the following statements:

                          Religion is        Religion can
                    "     very important  "answer all or most
Respondents          in their life"     of today's problems"
------------------------------------------------------------
Attended college         53 percent        58 percent
No college                  63                   65

Income over $50,000     48                 56
$30,000 - $50,000        56                  62
$20,000 - $30,000        56                  60
Under $20,000             66                  66

More fun stuff from studies

Of course, one must be careful with correlation - it is association not causation. But I can't help wondering...

are they thick because they are religious, or religious because they are thick?
