"My conclusion"? I'm simply quoting from the experts (well a government literature review which itself examined the evidence provided by experts).

Do you have opposing literature you wish to post?

So what? I'm not talking about whether religion was or wasn't a determinant of health in ancient times.

And in any case, of course there'll be exceptions. Scientology for instance is most certainly NOT going to be good for mental health at all since they oppose psychology. JW's oppose modern medicine, and this can also lead to serious health issues, so even if it provides a benefit it also provides a detriment.
For Religion & Health see:[/b][/size] Williams & Sternthal. (2007). Spirituality, religion and health: Evidence and research directions. Med. J. Aust., 186(10), S47-S50. -LINK

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
