Sorry Fundamentalist and Pentecostals- Catholics and Mainline Protestants Live Longer

This is a interesting study I just saw. A LSU Prof was involved in it. GO see Catholic? Mainline Protestant? You'll Probably Live Longer By the way there is still hope for others.

However, this finding has an important caveat, because there are different types of Conservative Protestant churches, namely, Fundamentalist, Pentecostal and Evangelical.
"We find that a greater presence of Fundamentalist and Pentecostal congregations is associated with higher rates of mortality, but communities with a large number of Evangelical congregations have better health outcomes," said Blanchard. "Evangelical congregations do a better job of engaging the broader community and promoting social connectedness that is so essential for longer life expectancies. Fundamentalist congregations tend to be more reclusive, and this insularity is linked with higher mortality rates."

So come to Louisiana pick a Catholic heavy Town go to Mass and live till you are a hundred!!!

We should contact the Governor's Office to see if they will perhaps with certain Dioceses that are very Catholic Church heavy do a joint Advertising Campaign to get people to move here. :)

Is the Diocese of Alexandria with it nice size of Catholics but a huge numbers of Pentecostals a health Risk though? :)
