Much smaller than the percent of atheists in the general population.

I saw no figures for Jews in prison on that site. On my own search I found that the number of Jews in prison has increased since 2002, but no actual percentages. Remember also what I said about prisoners lying.
What I do know for a certain fact is that you failed biology 101. Most people on the internet failed biology 101. Kitzmiller v. Dover is the "law" in a manner of speaking still because most people failed biology 101.

Do you believe RNA chains less than 40 links can build themselves up against the Second Law of Thermodynamics? Do you realize that never happens?

This sentence doesn't even make sense. Even you should have long abandoned the claim that anything about evolution violates the Second Law of Thermodynamics. But I realize that you have trouble grasping the concept of that big yellow shiny thing in the sky during daylight hours.

Why do you guys on here always have to use fancy terms?
I seriously had to look up what incarcerated meant.
I have probably looked up the meaning of
incarceration
in the past myself, but I am a Finn.
Isn't it good these guys use "fancy terms" so we may learn more English language?
I was surprised to see someone whose first language is English finds
incarcerated
a fancy term, but perhaps it is. -

That's on;y because it's smart for prisoners to get religion.
It's a silly argument anyway since this only shows 2 things.- Prisoners are a small percentage of the whole population and are rarely a representation of the whole anyway.
- They likely aren't in there by doing religious things. So the argument is basically the same ones the religious have. They were being hypocritical.
Theophobiacs and believers agree!
If this is Locke, then who's in there?

Wait, are you saying prisoners aren't representative of the prisoner population..?

Realityphobiacs agree with whatever position supports the cray-cray. The passive-aggressive camp is optional, though.
The destruction of the wicked is literal and as a collective they make up the heavens and the earth that people think don't change. -

I think part of the reasoning behind that is because atheists don't believe in an afterlife, so they don't want spend the few years they have on this planet rotting in prison, where as the theist perspective just see this as a temporary realm, so the threat of jail isn't quite as severe.

The important points to consider are:
What kind of economic background atheists have and what kind of social and economic backgrounds theists have. Which countries figures you have quoted and which agency provided the data.You reach, I teach

I don't really like this argument.
If there's one thing religion is good at, it's being a coping mechanism. And if there's one thing that would require a lot of coping, it's having your freedom taken away.
Do the polls that people reference when they say stuff like this take into account the likelihood of someone in prison identifying as the predominant religion just to avoid the extra hassle and pressure their fellow inmates might place on them if they out themselves as an "other?"
And given how mistrusted atheists are, it wouldn't surprise me to learn if people who were generally non-religious take up the practice in prison so that they can look like good, upstanding, rehabilitated citizens.
