By Guest Blogger Angie Andriot, Sep 26, 2009, at 10:20 am In the Bible (book of Genesis), God sends two angels to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. These angels were charged with the task of evaluating the rate of sin within the walls. If the people were completely overridden by sin, God would destroy them. What if those angels were statisticians, with access to GIS and geomapping software? How would the story have been different? Some geographers at Kansas State University recently did an analysis of the spacial distribution of EVIL in the United States. Which part of the country is most afflicted by sloth? That’s right, folks – these geographers have operationalized sin, quantified it, then measured and mapped it. By looking at sin at the aggregate level, what they’re doing here is examining sin as a social fact, as opposed to an individual trait. This would also be useful in showing how we can’t extrapolate individual characteristics from aggregate data.
