"The value of religion speaks less through sermons and more through the soup kitchens, hospitals, schools and countless other humanitarian works it nurtures. Simply put, religion builds social capital. Research shows that more than 90 percent of those who attend weekly worship services donate to charity, and nearly 70 percent volunteer for charitable causes.[3] Such giving also benefits the giver. According to the landmark study American Grace, “the correlation between religiosity and life satisfaction is powerful and robust.”[4]"

"soup kitchens, hospitals, schools and countless other humanitarian works"
Epic. All. Hands. Mormon. Fail.
On the other hands, lots of PR volunteers and a mall! Go Team!
