Those states that are the most religious have more societal ills, and tend to:
“Have the highest rates of poverty
Have the highest rates of obesity
Have the highest rates of infant mortality
Have the highest rates of STDs
Have the highest rates of teen pregnancy
Have the lowest percentage of college-educated adults
Have the highest rates of murder and violent crime.”
