But, my post isn't entirely baseless. I don't have any kind of studies to reference or psychiatrists to quote, but it's based simply in actually knowing someone in each of my categories. There are probably lots more groupings, but I didn't try to guess at them because then it would have been baseless.

My favorites are two friends that I don't even know where to group. Both are atheists, and both go to christian churches, sing hymns, bow their heads when called to prayer, etc etc etc. One is because she dearly loves her southern baptist grandmother and she doesn't think granny could handle the news, and the other because he is afraid that he might be left out of an inheritance if he tells his dad he isn't "a believer".
