Does Your Religion Affect Your Income?

link here to article

This article suggests that it does. Income varies significantly by one's religious affiliation. Protestants, especially Baptist's and Pentecostal's, earn less than Catholics, who earn less than Jews. Education, of course is highly correlated with income. This helps to explain the findings about religion since education varied by religion as well. Religious groups which are highly educated make the most money.
