The Washington Post mentioned Greg Paul’s research recently as part of a review of Michael Shermer’s new book, The Moral Arc. The article said, “
[Shermer] is at his strongest in presenting material such as the fascinating research by social scientist Gregory S. Paul that painstakingly analyzes 17 developed countries on a range of factors to find a striking correlation between a countryÔÇÖs level of religiosity and its dysfunction (as measured on such indices as homicides, suicides, divorce, income inequality, etc.).”
