Re 27: More likely, the offspring of the upper classes avoid responsibility, are devious, and are indolent. Religion tends to be an occupation of lower-class women -- for example, the poor women of Latin America. Upper class men only appear in church three times -- baptism, marriage, and burial.
I naively used to think that "middle-class values" distinguished the middle from the lower classes. But I was mistaken. "Middle-class values" distinguish the middle-classes from the upper-class.
That fits the description of my churchgoing habits LOL my backround is on the borderline between upper and middle class.
