== Your e-mail ==
Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it really. However, I think that if you do read it you will notice that 17% IS out of the hate crimes in 2009 which are 7,775.

Here is what the website says: 7,775 offenses total for hate crimes in 2009.


== Religion in the United States pie chart ==
The website says "Law enforcement agencies reported 1,376 hate crimes motivated by religious bias."


May you add this more recent and more specific than the Gallup data since it shows that 40% of America is Protestant.
1,376 / 7,775 = .1769 which is '''17.7%'''.

===Editing the article===
</div>
Greetings. I wanted to know what was the main complaint on my edit. You claimed that I was making new research, when I have just regurgitated the sources themselves. The only plausible objection that I see is my assertion that most violence in America is indeed secular since the FBI tables show that very few people commit crimes based on religious beliefs. {{unsigned:Ramos1990}}

Please help me make my post better.
:Hi, thank you for asking. You need to find a reliable source that says such. The FBI tables show that over 17% are religiously motivated. That's contrary to what you wrote. You can start working on some additions in your userspace, and I will see if I can help you - but you should read up on things like ] and ] to see what things you cannot add to articles.

:::Hi, please remember to put your responses after mine, and I'll put mine after yours, etc. OK, here's the problem. Your original research/synthesis is in thinking that the hate crime numbers have anything to do with other crimes. There are many crimes that are not deemed (by the law) hate crimes that may be caused by similar reasons. So, the stats simply can't be cross-applied to come up with the original research you did. You'd have to know, of all crimes, what the stats were for religiously motivated ones - which I do not see. '''You''' cannot extrapolate. '''We''' can only allow an expert that we can cite do that.

::::Ok I see your point. I will exclude this part.

How about the rest of the stuff I put in? These rest was sociological data on the religious beliefs of atheists from the first world wide study on atheists from all over the world.

Can I add this? Or do you see a problem. {{unsigned|Ramos1990}}


{{od}}Hi, it's a pretty extensive section. Perhaps what you want to do is post a message on that article's ] and ask everyone who works on that article for their opinions and suggestions. Also, that way you can join into the discussions on that page. Also, remember when you make a post on a talk page to sign your posts.

== Changes to the 'Religiosity and intelligence' and the 'Atheism' pages ==

I thought I might be able to say something useful about why people reverted most of your changes to those pages, even though the changes contained reasonable information. One problem is that the pages, and all others in their general category, are elaborate compromises that arose from actual years of people arguing back and forth about every conceivable alternative, based on every conceivable perspective, working towards every conceivable goal. The current state is therefore such a precarious balance between multiple irreconcilable passions that almost any significant change will constitute a step backwards to one faction or another.

Consequently, any big change will probably either be reverted, or worse yet incite another conflagration, which probably has already happened anyway, possibly more than once. The best way to make significant changes at this point is to describe them first on the Discussion page, and conduct the probable firestorm there. If you can manage to get some kind of consensus, which is difficult but not impossible, you could then move the result to the main page, and probably make it stick given that it does indeed represent a consensus; not that "consensus" itself is well defined. Writing for Misplaced Pages is something like joining a herd of dragons.

Feeling myself underutilized, I wanted to see if I could do anything useful in Misplaced Pages, so I tried something that I recommend. I made a shortcut that selects a random article (http://en.wikipedia.org/Special:Random) and put it in my browser's shortcut toolbar. Whenever I want to look something up in Misplaced Pages, or whenever the spirit moves me (which it often does) I click that shortcut, then see if the article that appears seems like it could use anything I might provide without causing undue commotion. I've not only learned of many things I didn't even know existed to be ignorant about, I've sometimes been able to make changes that lasted. ] (]) 02:31, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
