I've already seen posts where the writer claims that Norwich's low crime level isn't due to its high number of atheists, but rather from the lower number of muzzies, wogs, keifers, etc.

Norwich kicked out its Jews in the middle ages and began the first organised pogroms, so always appears to have been ahead of the curve on matters of social or religious tolerance etc. :coffee:

They have a reputation for in-breeding in that part of the world. Too dim even for criminalising.

Actually Cumbria has the lowest crime rate in the country - not a single murder last year for example.

Possibly because there are hardly any people in most of it..

Also - a third of Welsh people have 'no religion'. I am quoting the report second hand as quite by the Dicky himself who sends them his blessing..

No religion is an ambiguous statement though. They could still consider themselves as faithful, just not to any established organisation.

I think we can also count the 783 declared Jedi Knights in our camp. :dance:

I think its a statement of apathy more than any profound statement of non-belief.

The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.
