the content of this [insert word here] does not seem to lend itself to any title.

Just received an e-mail suggesting that attendance of church prolongs life.........hmmmmmmmmm are you sure it doesn't just feel like longer [I thought to myself] and allso why is it that the inclusion of the word prolongs seems to put a negative slant on those words [ I think perhaps that its {the word 'prolongs'} use is usually acociated with the end of ones life {i.e. a terminal illness}]

Anyway what i was going to say was that i hate it when religionists refer to something involving scientific evidence, in this case that, ' scientists upon taking a survey have found what may be termed a casual relationship between the attendance of church and the living of a longer life for example one person who never attended church lived to 70 whereas a person who attended all their life lived to 80.' but you just know that if anyone tried to test this further to see, for a start exactly how far reaching these findings and secondly weather they can be replicated in labrotory conditions and thirdly weather there is a particular part of the church that affects people to the elongation of there lifes, you just know that if anyone tried to do that they just wouldn't allow it and they'd still be quoting that damn statistic!
