Golden Age Superman, more like (the original version, from the 1940s). War profiteers and the like.
Silver Age Superman was more likely to be forced to marry a gorilla who was disguised as Lois Lane.
Actually, Superman would arrange for Lois to marry someone who would be revealed to be a gorilla as soon as the wedding vows ended.
Because Superman is a Dick.
Well, according to that Adherents site, in 1995 only about 33% of inmates actively attended church, and according to wikipedia, a 2006 survey showed that 42% of Americans attended church regularly. So it seems to me like the practicing religious folks are less likely to wind up in jail.
Or…folks in jail are less likely to practice?
I could just as easily see that as “I’m going to get my ass beat if these guys think I’m the kind of chump who goes to church”.
Unless you have a cite for that I’m not going to believe it.
Lots of people go to church because they enjoy the social aspects. I suspect those are somewhat lacking in prison chapels.
“Bake sale in Block D!”
I don’t understand White Power Bill. He forces us to check the Baptist box on the form at shivpoint, but then he shivs us if we go to church!
It’s exactly as supported as your contention, after all.
Of course, active participation in any sort of organization at all probably reduces criminal behavior, regardless of whether it’s a religious organization.
Like a gang? 
Or Congress…
Already covered in the post above yours.
Is that adjusted for age and sex?
I think that ALL violent felons are sociopaths, and the idea of converting to a religion in prison is a con job (no pun intended). They will do anything to get out so that they can continue committing crimes and if chanting “PRAIZE JEEBUZ!” helps that happen, they’ll be doing it 24/7.
That seems a little far fetched. There must be a few violent felons that are normal people that got pushed too far. Suppose you got in a fight and ended up killing someone. And for whatever reason the jury thought you deserved a year in prison. You wouldn’t be a sociopath, right?
Not that I think religions are worth a shit when it comes to putting people on the straight and narrow. I have met a couple people who don’t have utterly self-serving and convenient faiths. But they are few and far between. I’m sure most jailhouse conversions are theater where the prisoner wants to feel like he’s starting over.
I know I’ve seen claims that atheists are much underrepresented in prison populations, compared to the population as a whole. I didn’t doubt it, because I figured that the real underlying correlation was education. The more education, the less likely one will go to jail, and the more likely one would be an atheist.
I have no cites, it’s just my speculation.
I wouldn’t be surprised if many atheist prisoners kept their lack of belief to themselves to avoid being beaten up by believers.
That’s much is probably a given, but then it also doesn’t mean anything (and just as true as the reverse).
If popular understanding of prison life is accurate, then prisoners presumably try to keep everything to themselves, because everything can be turned into an excuse to beat you up. It’s not so much about beating *you *up specifically, more about letting out their own frustration at being locked up and you happening to be there.
Kind of like when you’re heartbroken, nursing the twelfth double whiskey of the evening at the bar and just begging for anyone to say anything just so you can finally get into a fight. Or is that just me ? 
I was going to say the same thing - athiesm is positvely associated with higher levels of education, and higher education is positively associated with staying out of prison.
In a debate between Frank Turek and Christopher Hitchens about the existence of God, Hitchens challenged Turek to cite some kind of deviant activity that an Atheist was likelier to engage in than a religious person (He didn’t come up with any). Hitchens then cited suicide bombing and blowing up women’s clinics as behaviors that were exclusive to the community of religious believers. I have hunch that if there were anything to the “more Atheists in prison” line of thinking, Turek would have brought it up pretty quickly.
