My parents are also Russian. LOL.

Have you been drinking again? Difference is I was raised Jewish, not some other religion. Tang was raised Christian. Was likely baptized, etc.

Do you really not see the difference?

About 100 give or take.

dude, in a country of over 300 million 100 people is not statistically significant.

Actually mathematically it is.

https://www.surveysystem.com/sscalc.htm#one

Actually no it isn't. You need, at the very least, 300 people to be 'significant' and even if you do, you need to cut corners.

Nope

You just need 32 persons for it to be somewhat statistically significant. Now if I want to start playing with standard deviations I need to speak to more. But 100 is a good enough sample. This is not 15 people. This is 100 more or less. If you want to extrapolate they then speak about their uncles, fathers, brothers, friends and neighbors who voted the same way for those same reasons. That equates to more or less 500+ people.

How does how you were raised make a difference? You are an agnostic. Tangplay is a Catholic. You were both born Jewish, but neither practices the religion now. I don't really see much of a difference.

WRONG!!

Tang's mom is Jewish. He did not convert. He was raised a Christian. I was raised Jewish. Temple and all. When I got older I rationally decided that I need proof of God's existence. I still follow all the traditions and such but deep down I do it for traditions not because I believe in a higher power. Tang is a Polish Christian with a Jewish mom. He is as Jewish as Obama is Muslim.

Um, I have taken stats classes. In this case, both 32 and 100 are way too small to rely on the result.

For example, if you have a population of 50,000 and you want a 2% margin of error and a 99% confidence level, you need over 3800 samples. Now, that's a very small margin and a high confidence level. But even if you reduced those to 5% and 95%, you still need almost 400 samples. And that's at a 50,000 person population.

15 is not statistically significant, and I have known that. The reason why I brought that up is that you like specific, individual examples like that one, and I was able to provide one. Sometimes you like those types of examples, sometimes you like big picture stats, and sometimes you like neither.

100 is in no way statistically significant in a pool of 35 million.
