And God Said, No Worries . . .
Researchers know that religious people tend to live longer, healthier lives (tough luck, atheists), but knowledge of exactly how belief translates into vitality has proved to be as elusive as the nature of faith itself. Fresh research offers a tantalizing clue. It appears that people with faith simply don’t get as stressed out as people without it.
What about agnostics? Do those die even younger as they worry twice as much (i.e. worry over the problem at hand, plus over their doubts about God’s existence)?
For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you. Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
