Religious children are meaner than their secular counterparts, study finds | World news | The Guardian http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/n ... kids-study
I know it's childish (no pun intended) but that made me laugh. |

Hardly surprising. If you look at America, the more 'Christian' people seems to be, the more they spout hate and bile at others. A similar thing can be said for some muslim groups in the middle east. Where are their children going to learn their attitudes? From them of course. |

There's a distribution of 'dickness' in the population. That's true regardless of what other metadata you use to segment your sample. The causal direction between extremism and religion isn't easy to prove though - are religious people more likely to be extreme in their view, or are people who are more inclined to extreme viewpoints attracted to religions simply as means to validate those extreme views? The number of muslims heading off to ISIS to the utter shock of their much more moderate families suggests it's a lot more complex than 'you inherit your parent's views'. |
