believing that there is a higher being doesn't make you religious. I don't really see how murder rates and abortion can be correlated to places of faith. I don't see how they can generalize and say, "since there's religion in america and they have high murder rates...then they're positively correlated with a +1 coefficient of correlation". It might be me, but it doesn't really make much sense. Can someone point it out to me?
