Talk of the Town: Accidental Catholic

Comments on “Accidental Catholic,” (Social Climate by Mahar Mangahas, 1/17/26) via https://opinion.inquirer.net:

Richard Dawkins quote: “But by far the most important variable determining your religion is the accident of birth. If you had been born in India, you’d be a Hindu. If you had been born in Denmark in the time of the Vikings, you’d be believing in Wotan and Thor.”

BeenThere

If religion were really good for humankind, why is it that the healthiest countries, with the highest life expectancy, adult literacy, per capita income, educational attainment, gender equality, and lowest infant mortality are also the least religious? Conversely, the 50 nations ranked lowest by the United Nations development index are the most religious.
