Wrong. keewee7 stated the Christian Americans Taxpayers paid for 80% of the program, turns out keewee7 is only slightly off, and as Christian American Taxpayers only paid for about 63%
- mulmen 5y agoThe 80% number is based on US taxpayer funding. For that to be true all Americans would have to be Christian, which they aren’t. This was my objection. The difference between all Americans being Christian and some or even most of them being Christian is not “slight”. 80% and 63% are not close by any measure. Qualifying the original statement with religious affiliation still ignores the fact that tax dollars are not paid with religious affiliation in mind and JWST has no (official) religious meaning. Further calling out American Christians but ignoring the Canadian and European Christians further distorts the 63% number. This entire thread has been a textbook example of lying with statistics. Even if you manage to get them right the numbers don’t justify the message.
