Favorite Beatitude

Poll question: Favorite Beatitude

It occurs to me that the average DUer is probably a gay male, mid-30s and agnostic, but that the average DUer probably makes more of an effort to follow the teachings of Jesus (though maybe not in so many words) than all the pharisees of televangelism and Free Republic put together. What say you?
(Full disclosure: I'm 43, male, agnostic, and at least try to love my neighbor as myself.)

9. I don't think the "average" DU is gay/male. I would guess that

they make up about the same percentage of the population here as they do in the general population. Of coure, you could always do another poll and prove me wrong ;)

BTW - I picked, "blessed are the merciful..."

10. You're probably right

that the average DUer isn't either gay or male, but the percentage is probably double or triple that in the general population, or anyway here in flyover country. It would make an interesting poll, but I don't think I'm the guy who's going to do it. (There's probably been gazillions, but I think archive searching is still turned off.)
