So..you are saying muslims are conservative. In the way we in the USA think of Conservatism? Many muslims appear very devout....

I'm just attempting to figure out what you mean exactly when you make the statement that I replied to.

Do you have examples / stats to prove the following...?

However, in both cases people in those groups who are more faithful to their religion more often vote conservatively.

I know...anecdotally of course, many Jews and Catholics that go to Church/Temple every week...that aren't by any means Conservative.

So are your comments based on fact...or your opinions?

No

“Do you have examples / stats to prove the following...?”

Yes, but I’d have to take some time to find them.

“I know...anecdotally of course, many Jews and Catholics that go to Church/Temple every week...that aren’t by any means Conservative.”

A correlation does not mean that there are not many exceptions.

“So are your comments based on fact...or your opinions?”

Facts

There are some statistically significant differences of that sort—i.e. that those more frequently, intensely involved in their faith TEND to be more conservative.
