Nevadans pride themselves as having 'the highest "Christian" ethics'? * Hit me again. The bottom ten are, in reverse order form lowest to higher: Nevada, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Wyoming, Indiana, Alabama, Idaho, New Mexico, and Florida. I recognize Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Alabama as being in the South or Southwest, part of the "Bible Belt". Perhaps Wirt will address New Mexico's rating for us. But I'm not sure how Nevada, Wyoming, Indiana, Idaho, and Florida regard themselves. But then, those numbers are more than half a decade old, and I could not find where that web site offered to define the components of the rate they published. Nor did I find a piety index.
