It's official...Scientists prove what most of us knew...that fundamentalists like GAFCONITES have less compassion than atheists!

What? So I'm an atheist then?

Research shows that ... Atheists and agnostics are more driven by compassion to help others than are highly religious people.
That doesn't mean highly religious people don't give, according to the research to be published in the July 2012 issue of the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science. But compassion seems to drive religious people's charitable feelings less than it other groups.
"Overall, we find that for less religious people, the strength of their emotional connection to another person is critical to whether they will help that person or not," study co-author and University of California, Berkeley social psychologist Robb Willer said in a statement. "The more religious, on the other hand, may ground their generosity less in emotion, and more in other factors such as doctrine, a communal identity, or reputational concerns."

  1. The reason why Christians are more selfish is that the majority are gay. We will only be more generous when we cure them from their illness.
