A few days ago, somebody threw the study referred to here in my face, as further proof of the evils of religion:
Since the sudden, premature death of Andrew Breitbart, which led to the eventual emergence of Breitbart News as the Trumpist equivalent of L’Osservatore Romano, I haven’t exactly been a fan. But Dr. Thomas Williams shouldn’t necessarily be held responsible for the sins of Steve Bannon and the alt-right.
And, anyway, see also this little piece by Dr. William Briggs:
“Are Religious Kids Really Less Altruistic?”
I’m hoping, hereby, to warn some of those off who might otherwise be inclined to hurl this study by Jean Decety at me in the future, imagining that Professor Decety has settled the matter once and for all.
