There are still no citations for the claims about conservative values "defending against" addiction, etc.  The one cite (and really the study itself should be cited, rather than The Economist) only speaks to stress, and only includes white Protestants, so is probably not particularly representative of either group (conservatives or, especially, liberals).

:Sigh...I suppose I should let it go at this point but none of those citations actually provide any evidence about the points they're attached to.  The first 2 are merely assertions.  Stress does not equal anxiety.  A person's self-report of whether they have good mental health, regardless of its reliability, tells us little about serious mental illness, a phrase which refers to such disorders as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.  [[User:Murray|Murray]] 21:58, 24 April 2008 (EDT)

:: Murray, you seemed to determine to deny any correlation.  Do you really think there is no correlation ''at all'''?  Mormons and Muslims prohibit alcohol and ... guess what?  There is less incidence of alcoholism among those groups.  Please do tell us you deny that also.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 22:41, 24 April 2008 (EDT)
