Congratulations to blogger Mark A. R. Kleiman. His article on Chuck Colson's bogus claim of success with faith-based and taxpayer funded prison rehabilitation is online at Slate.com. Mark reports that Chuck is guilty of "creaming," that is, selective interpretation of data to reach a desired result. Frankly, I don't care whether the programs work or not; giving or withholding any state benefit based on religious beliefs -- or the willingness to undergo religious indoctrination -- is wrong.
