"...opposite is true for a telephone or electricity. Amish have lower suicide rates."...

It's not the gun, electricity, or telephone,....they are Christian. It would be interesting to evaluate "born again" Christian suicide rates against those that listen to Black Sabath, AC DC, or Marilyn Manson. Or for that matter the murder rate of both groups. I would assume the Christians would kill more often because they are intolerant of others. ;<)

Yes, it would be very interesting indeed.

It would also be interesting to compare rates for home schoolers, private school attendees, and public school attendees. I would suspect that attending a public school would be a MAJOR risk factor for adolescent suicide.
