"Increasing US alcohol consumption could save 150,000 lives per year.

"Our current level of alcohol consumption saves an estimated 80,000 lives per 
year."

and, then:

<http://members.fortunecity.com/zz8/schoolprayer.htm>

*       SAT Scores decreased 98 points since spoken school prayer in US public 
schools was banned.
*       Countries with spoken school prayer score more than 100 TIMSS points higher 
than US 12th graders.
*       Religious schools in some states score 31 NAEP points higher than private 
schools in those states.
*       Public schools cost three to four times as much per student as religious 
schools.
*       University School in Cincinnati scores higher than every one of 
California's 731 public schools which prohibit spoken school prayer.
*       Four out of five Americans want spoken school prayer.
*       The US murder rate almost tripled since spoken school prayer was banned.
