NewChanging churches

The survey seems to be more about changing churches than “changing religions” … WRN’s headline seems to miss the point.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.

What a ridiculous article. The difference in behavior between college educated and non-college educated is 7 or 8 percentage points. Come on.
