Belt Buckled

Dear Piers,
Ever since you moved to godless Virginia, you have, no doubt, longed for your youth in this, the very buckle of the Bible Belt.
Here are this year's Easter stats (the percentage of the County's population that actually darkened various churches' doors on Easter Sunday 2007):

Muslim--nary a one
Jewish--.01% (if she drove her pekingese up to Overton for the art glass exhibition at the Temple)
Anglican--.66%
Catholic--1.16%
Presbyterian--1.33%
Church of Christ (not affiliated in any remote way with the United Church of Christ)--4.87%
Methodist--8.17%
Southern Baptist--10.03%
Loony and, in the main, Heretical Sects--Lord only knows

Simple addition gives us a grand total of 26.23% of nonheretic locals who actually bestirred themselves to enter a church, synagogue, or mosque on Easter Sunday.
Let us round it off to a ripe 25%, here in the very buckle of the Bible Belt.

Conclusion?
The conclusion is that there's right smart lying going on when Americans brag to religion pollsters.
Unless it's the pollsters who're lying.

With my belt unbuckled and my pants barely covering my butt, Giac.
