Christianity has little to do with crime rates. Christians have a long history of law breaking and massacres. The religion was founded by a law breaker. In the name of Christianity, many crusades (invasions) were launched to ‘free’ the holy lands… Haven’t you ever wondered what happen to those that worshiped the ancients gods of Rome? The Christians slaughtered them all during the 4th(?) century. Under the influence of Constantine I, the Christian movement gradually underwent its major transformation from a previously underground and even criminal movement into an officially sanctioned religion of 'first rank' within the Roman Empire.

I need more information. Phillipines has large numbers of Catholics and Muslims. It has smaller numbers of Evangelicals, Hindus, Bhuddists, etc. As with many countries, many Filipinos are not religious at all. So are ciminals spread equally among all groups? Or are they concentrated in one or two of them? Compare it the the US. Most violent crime is committed by people in demographic groups identified as Democrat. Does that mean the Democrats are to blame for it? Or that the Democrats are more violent? And what about non-violent crime in any country. Is it equal in importance to violent crime? Does it have a different demographic pattern from violent crime?
