for sure that's true, but the data does actually show faith based activities have even better outcomes. it's not just a coincidence. to be fair this is very hard to study. but at least anecdotally, people who have beliefs and organize around them always strike me as the happiest.
Is it "data shows...better outcomes" or "anecdotally..."? Those don't mean the same thing. If you've got sources, please share.
not going to google search for you, but it was Pew research center
In any discussion or debate, the burden of proof is on you.
You need to do the googling as no one cares about your opinion as much as you.
Have a point? Claim there is data? Back it up yourself or go home.
its the internet. im not going to waste a bunch of time doing research for you. you can either go to the Pew center or not. If you were interested you would. If you aren't interested, why do you care?
