Lightbulb Pew Study: War increases religious faith, immigration weakens - 05-14-2013, 12:44 PM

Bombing people restores religious faith. The latest Pew study, The World’s Muslims: Religion, Politics and Society (edited for readability by Zenpundit) proves it. Here are the most devout nations in the world. The ones we bomb regularly are in bold.
Asked “should sharia be the law of the land,” 57% of Muslims across 38 countries answered “yes” ... 99% of Afghans, 91% of Iraqis, 89% of Palestinians, 84% of Pakistanis and even 74% of Egyptians. Should sharia apply to non-Muslims as well as Muslims? Across 21 countries surveyed on this question, 40% answered affirmatively — with the highest positive response coming from Egypt (its 74% exceeding even Afghanistan’s 61%). And on the question whether sharia punishments — such as whippings [Of adults, that is] and cutting off of thieves’ hands [How barbaric! The US prison system is far more civilized: we just rape them and leave it at that.] — should be enacted, the 20-country average was 52%, led by Pakistan (88%), Afghanistan (81%), the Palestinian Territories [PT] (76%) and Egypt (70-%). On the specific penalty of stoning for adultery, the 20-country average was 51% — with, again, Pakistan (89%), Afghanistan (85%), the PT (84%) and Egypt (71%) highest in approval. Finally, 38% of Muslims, across those same 20 nations, support the death penalty for those leaving Islam for another religion.

30% of Muslims in 21 countries support polygamy, including almost half of Palestinians, 46% of Iraqis and 41% of Egyptians. There is also significant support for honor killings in not just Afghanistan and Iraq but also Egypt and the PT. Over ¾ of Muslims across 23 countries says that “wives must always obey their husbands:” an average of 77%....
Wow, sorry if I just inflicted a serious case of Jihad envy on y'all. Especially on wives always obeying their husbands: a similar Pew survey finds evangelicals only at 55%! Pathetic!

Back to the faith-boosting effect of bombs:
Afghans are at the top of almost every list in support for not just sharia, suicide bombing, honor killing ...confidence that they are emulating Islam’s founder, as well as dislike for democracy.
Anyway, there's a dark side to the study, it shows us how immigration ends up killing the religious faith of Muslims, turning them into agnostic "if it feels good do it" hedonists:
In some ways Islam in Southeastern Europe, and to a lesser extent in Central Asia, seems to be a more tolerant brand of the faith than the Middle Eastern variety. For example, the SE European and Central Asian Muslims are the least likely to support the death penalty for “apostasy,” and the most supportive of letting women decide for themselves whether to veil.
American muslims are the worst: they're basically agnostics who know how to ululate. Pew has a whole page showing how weak their faith is in every category.

You know what I'd really like to see? A study comparing Evangelicals and U.S. Muslims. The two studies I've link to here probably overlap at some point, but I have yet to find it. For example, half of US Muslims believe their holy book is to be taken literally, word-for-word. How many Christians believe the same?
