76% of Americans identify as Christian.

Even if we supposed for a moment that NONE turn to Christianity after incarceration (which we know NOT to be the case), Christian's would still be UNDER-represented in prison according to this study.

Which I guess is the exact opposite of what you hoped to prove...

Atheists are even more underrepresented.

Agreed, but it was not the OP's intention to discredit them now was it?

I don't know if what Galaki's intention was. I think he just read an article like he always does. Thought that the community would love to post about it, so he created a thread. I don't think his intent was to say Christian's are more likely to be criminals then Athiests or such. Infact he's a very intelligent user and I doubt he wouldn't look at this article and the population stats and such before trying to make the suicidal approach of suggesting this article actually represents the truth.
