"Church air was found to be considerably higher in carcinogenic polycyclic hydrocarbons than air beside roads travelled by 45,000 vehicles daily."

Now, I've got no idea what carcinogenic polycyclic hydrocarbons are, but I reckon they're no good.

I'd just advise staying away from churches - unless it's a cellar like a church with the door ajar*

Ok. Quick chemistry lesson - imagine six atoms of carbon with a hydrogen atom attached to each. These six pairs join up to form a hexagon shape (known as a 'benzene ring'). Polycyclic hyrocarbons are formed when 2 or more of these rings join together, and are one of the by-products of burning fossil fuels (petrol, oil, coal etc.)

Just look at the world and you'll see how bad religion can be for it. I'm feeling all prophetic tonight, totally prophetic.
