1. As Jesus would have it.

Sheesh.

2. How biblical!

3. Jail populations have a higher percentage of christians than the general population. . . nt

4. That's a reflection of our society.

The vast majority of people as a whole in the US are Christian, so there will be more Christians in jail.
And inmates love to put on the "I found Jesus" story in front of parole boards.

But the group with the smallest prison population, atheists?
We're considered by the "good Christians" to "have no morals" since we don't believe in their stories.

9. Female Asians.

"But the group with the smallest prison population.."

Female Asians, regardless of faith or lack of it... to be accurate.

10. I was referring to the religious makeup of prisoners.

But yeah, that is the smallest group you listed.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

12. You misread. And I was a somewhat off on my figures.

I didn't write that the most prisoners are christian.

I wrote that the percentage of christians among prisoners in jail is higher than the percentage of christians among people outside of jail.

I should have written jails house a greater percentage of Protestants than the general population.

Jails (2011): Protestant: 50.6%, Catholic: 14.5%, other christian: 1.2% for a total of 66.3%.

General population (2008): Protestant: 44.4%, Catholic: 23.9%, Historically Black Churches: 6.9%, Mormon: 1.7% for a total of 76.9%.

It turns out my point is weak, depending on how HBC are counted (probably mainly Protestant). I should probably retire my talking point.

5. Maybe the standard 10% isn't enough these days.

6. I'm sure they have already been forgiven and cleansed of their sin

Although the state of Ohio seems to be a bit more persistent.

7. I have a hunch the family will be found dead.

Mother and daughter shot by dad, then dad shoots himself.

And an autopsy will find they had been high on meth.

11. Woah there. Hunch incorrect.

TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) - Police say a Sunday school teacher at a local church was robbed by the pastor of that church and his family while teaching her class on Sunday. The robbery occurred at St. Paul Zion Church located on 954 Belmont around 10:30 a.m.

Police say Nickema Turner was teaching Sunday school when the the pastor's wife, Zelda Morris, and daughter, 19-year-old Kamali Morris, assaulted her. Turner told police personal property was stolen from her by Zelda. She also told police that during the assault, Pastor Anthony Morris pulled out a gun and threatened to kill her.

Turner was treated at the scene and told police she would follow up with medical treatment if necessary.

Anthony and Zelda have since turned themselves in.

13. O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Similar line when the escapee got baptized and had his sins washed away.

8. By god - THIS is heartening!

Here's a pastor and his clan - forcibly taking the personal belongings of this teacher so that they can be liquidated, redeemed, and the resultant proceeds distributed amongst the poor! Literally enforcing the "Tithe that binds".
And how resourceful that he had a backup plan (As in have a gun showing while executing a "backup" towards the door). I can hear God's advice to these crusaders: "When you fleece the flock - carry a Glock."

14. Man of God who pulls a gun, robs folks, AND fucks around?

According to the police report, the pastor’s wife told Ms. Turner’s 16-year-old daughter the incident happened because “your mom slept with my husband.”

15. Contents of purse

I'm gonna go on a hunch -- they weren't after money. Evidence for blackmail? Maybe.

[Stryst]

16. They took perscriptions too

Painkillers? Benzos? I think the attack was about the phone, but as soon as they took those prescriptions, it was a federal felony. If someone can go to jail for selling a single one of their own pills, then these animals should go down hard for this.
