empirical evidence.

Where I worked if ya wanted a sure fire promotion ya joined the church
the boss was a member of.

That is disgusting. Usually it is insurance and real estate
agents joining one church after another to tap out sales.

Whatever... ya can go with the system or
against it, whateeeeeever. I've known a lot of fine religious people
and many religious scoundrels all in the name of Gawd of course.

I lost my largest customer years ago because I would not
assist him is defrauding a software company of around
~24,000 U$D annually in software licenses. He was
a Bible thumping Christian. I also did not help that
I shouted at him "Thou shalt not steal!"

So, obviously, Christians are not perfect. Think
of salvation as walking up the down escalator.
If you don't constantly strive at it, you slip
backwards. The term we use for it is "spiritual
warfare".

I work for a JW. It is not an issue, he does not
talk religion around all the Christians that
work for him and we don't give him a bad time.
He is a stand up guy.

Society benefits when religions complete with each
other in the arena of good work.
