Christainity breeds poverty

There appears to be a clear correlation between christian population and the level of poverty of a nation. It looks like that the Christianity is keeping the people poor in the developing world. It can be said that the higher the percentage of christians, higher is the percentage of the population below poverty line.

It is time to send back these non productive parasites of society back to the society as workers.
