Doesn’t Mass have the highest share of atheists in the country?

Sadly the highest share of Geoff Diehl.

This man’s commercials have been the best comedy released in decades. How is this the best the MA GOP has to offer?

Thank you for the chuckle.

It's the same reason why the democratic nominees aren't great. Unless you're pretty well off or have family already in politics it's really difficult to get started. Not much to pick from.

I'm amazed Wu has gotten so far in only 10 years.

Weird. I though we had the best schools and one of the best life expectancies and highest incomes….

Why would God reward all these atheists?

It almost seems like religion is some fake-ass bullshit used to grift dumb folks. Because all the super religious states are drowning in misery and deaths of despair.

You're clearly hurt. That post is one of the most negative and dumbest comments I've ever seen.

Every predictable accusation from you is such a sad confession.

You must be very new to Reddit if that's the most negative comment you've ever seen.

Yeah go see a Catholic priest, unless of course you’re a young boy.

I think it’s actually Vermont but I could be wrong. Definitely in the top five

Maine is up there too. It’s bad enough a few of the radio stations are Christian rock now.

I kind of love that New England is where you go to learn there is no God. I assume it's the snow, dunks, and weed.

That's how you know radio is dead, replacing all the classic rock stations with Christian propaganda crap.

I listen to it for a laugh on my commute sometimes but you get the preachers talking about abortion etc sometimes and that’s a bit much.

MA is indeed the least religious state in the country (tied with New Hampshire): https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/02/29/how-religious-is-your-state/?state=massachusetts

Somewhat of a different metric than highest percent of atheists, but arguably more useful of a metric as it demonstrates how important (or unimportant) religion is in a state. Hypothetically a state could be 40% atheist but the other 60% could be very religious.
