{{data.pair|Text|“Comparing 18 prosperous democracies from the [[United States|U.S.]] to [[New Zealand]], author Gregory S Paul quietly demolished the myth that [[faith strengthens society]]. .. Drawing on a wide range of studies to cross-match [[faith]] – measured by belief in [[God]] and [[Darwinism|acceptance of evolution]] – with [[homicide]] and sexual behavior, Paul found that secular societies have lower rates of violence and teenage pregnancy than societies where many people profess belief in God. .. Top of the class, in both [[atheism]] and good behavior, come the [[Japan]]ese. Over eighty percent accept evolution and fewer than ten percent are certain that God exists. Despite its size – over a hundred million people – Japan is one of the least crime-prone countries in the world. It also has the lowest rates of teenage pregnancy of any developed nation.” Additional commentary: Pharyngula, [http://pharyngula.org/index/weblog/comments/sinners_in_the_hands_of_an_angry_phantasm/ 2005-09-27], [http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2006/08/sinners_in_the_hands_of_an_ang.php 2006-08-19] (repost with new comments)</let> | {{data.pair|Text|“Comparing 18 prosperous democracies from the [[United States|U.S.]] to [[New Zealand]], author Gregory S Paul quietly demolished the myth that [[faith strengthens society]]. ..
