ATHEISTS DIE 4 YEARS YOUNGER

Grasping at straws, are we? From the head of the article:

The Ohio State University study was based on 1,000 obituaries published across the US in 2011
While the data set is small, the psychology research team insisted there is merit to the correlation
Religious people often drink less, socialize more, and volunteer more


It would be interesting to see if there would be any change in the finding for 2018 vs. 2011. Or see the difference in longevity between atheists and theists in a country like Iceland or Estonia with a much higher rate of atheism.

Typical Christian empathy.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
