point-- numb i news is to point out the grad your, to witness the splender of win wheeling-- bhinling galaxy, to wonder at the infinite tapestry of life and time and say there it, and here we are, we need no god? but a plaque would be nice? (laughter) folks, i say this attack on the 9/11 cross is just the latest sign that america is going to the bow wow. gay marriage is legal in 17 states. medical or recreational marijuana is legal in 20 states. and-- in colorado you can now legally mary your bong. you may now toke the bride. and folks, i think i know why. because according to a recent study of american churches a quarter of all congregations had fewer than 50 people in the pews, leading to the new childhood game, here's the church, here's the steeple, open the doors, there's like six people in there at most. that's not a lot. and it's particularly bad among men. according to a recent abc, tpby-- poll while 45% of american women go to church each week, only 34% of men do. luckily, there's a way to bring men back into the fold and it brings us to tonight's word.
