Interesting you said that. We Nebraskans are a pretty reserved bunch, and I was frankly shocked driving across the country last week about the number of billboards advertising sex shops. You just don't see that here or in Iowa; but once you get across the line into Missouri, suddenly they start cropping up. Then you get into Illinois, and there are none; but there are more in Tennessee than in Missouri, and every second billboard in Georgia seems to be for a 'adult store'. Weird. It's almost as if the number of stores selling sex videos and toys correlates with the number of Baptists.

Another thing: we were driving on the interstate across Cobb County, Georgia, home of the 'evolution is a theory' sticker, and passed an overturned truck in the median. We passed it very slowly indeed, because the entire left hand lane was blocked by parked onlookers, who had just stopped, on a major highway, and got out of their vehicles, for no apparent reason except to gawk at some poor unfortunates in a road accident. I mean, I won't say we don't ease up on the gas in Nebraska to look at an accident, and in New Jersey they even refer in traffic reports to 'rubbernecking delays' on the turnpike, but it seems like only Godly people will actually stop in the fast lane of the highway , impeding thousands of others, and spend a fraction of their day simply taking in the sight of fellow human beings in distress.

Well to be scientific you would have to conduct a survey to see just who was a Baptist, who wasn't, and who was just passing thru, like you. You are just jumping to conclusions with no data to back it up.

In surveys taken, Baptist wives are the most faithful in marriage, unlike probably, evolutionists wives who are taught that there is such a thing as "an infidelity gene" and who can claim after all, that if they are unfaithful, it isn't their fault.

Not to say the danger they cause others who are expecting them to follow certain rational rules and not clog up the fast lane.

Blood, bad news and pain pay - just look at the nightly news.

HHHhhnmmmmmmm, well I guess that's life in the fast lane.
