SavedByGraceMD -> Study: Christianity makes men better husbands, fathers (7/13/2008 4:03:48 PM)

This is a just something I wanted to throw out there. Considering how much abuse we as Christians can take at times for our short comings, it is nice to see some positive studies done.
Check out this article

a little excerpt
Wilcox concluded his research brief by strongly advocating the positive effects that religion has on husbands and fathers: "This brief provides an array of evidence indicating that religion is an answer to the male problematic - that is, the tendency of fathers to become detached, emotionally or physically, from their children and the mothers of their children. I find that fathers who are religious, and who have partners who are religious, are - on average - more likely to be happily married, to be engaged and affectionate parents, and to get and stay married to the mothers of their children."
With all the negativity that only shows our shortcomings, it is nice to see a positive piece. Of course it is from OneNewsNow, couldn't expect something like this from the secular media.
So what do you think about this?
