Fähigkeit would probably also be useful to know for that one.

Verkehrsminister Volker Wissing (FDP) lehnte jedoch ein Sofortprogramm ab.

Ah, wenn er das ablehnt dann ist da natürlich nichts zu machen. Lückenlose Argumentation mit Sachargumenten.

Unfortunately, the reality of this conflict is that there is not enough support for a peaceful solution among the Arabic population in the middle east, least of all among Palestinians.

Odd statement considering there was (according to the latest Last Week Tonight episode) a survey shortly before the attacks that had about 3/4 of the population supporting a peaceful solution among Palestinians.

My theory is that you just don’t need them. You only need enough to keep something between your fingers and the hot wurst.

As a German I think of American hot dogs as disgusting sausage wrapped in disgusting bread.

Unless you have freakishly wide hands or a very drippy sauce you only really need something that works for the whole hand.

Yes, basically I meant that some religious people tend to argue that religion is some sort of natural need that people have and even if religion was not passed on to children they would flock to it on their own. It seems that is not the case though or a one generation interruption would not have this large of an effect decades later.

Have you missed the part where the GDR has been gone for several decades by the time this data was taken? If people had liked the church for those actions you described and just not gone to avoid repercussions from the state there would be plenty of time for them to go back since the fall of the GDR. They just didn’t.

Not sure how that is relevant to explain the large percentage of the population there who isn’t religious. If anything the effect of the actions you describe was probably slightly in favour of the church membership numbers.

I would see it the other way around. It shows that religion is nothing natural and as soon as churches aren’t actively allowed to indoctrinate children for one generation religious influence is massively reduced.
