Gee, Reg, might there be a correlation between religiosity and educational attainment? The world isn't exactly beating a path to Ole Miss and the University of Alabama. Muslim majority countries publish a ridiculously small fraction of the world's books. Good luck finding any related to science.

As to hell, it, sadly, has been the reality for the majority of humanity since our species arose a few hundred thousand years ago. Today, it's flourishing in Iran (for gays who live in fear of being thrown from buildings), in India (for hundreds of millions who are malnourished), in Syria and Iraq (for everyone), for the vast majority of North Koreans, for women in much of the world, for sub-Saharan Africans, for those living with mental illness...you get the idea. We in America, by and large, don't realize how fortunate we are. The Biblical version of Hell could only have been written by sick, twisted humans, who take delight in the suffering of others.

Play this loud, especially today!
