Here's a mystifying NPR report on a community in upstate New York where women are pressured to not drive, apparently on religious grounds. Some questions: Why do religious people so often feel the need to impose their preferences on others? And why do they feel the need to segregate themselves into communities in which public morality can be imposed? Why are they so unwilling to consider religion to be a private matter? Why is it that the more punctiliously religious some people are, the more likely they are to be doing things that seem totally incomprehensible to me?
