Over the last six weeks, Beliefnet has been charting the godliness of presidential candidates on its new blog, “God-o-Meter.” The website constantly tracks each candidate’s use of “God-talk,” and then scores them on a range from zero (secularist) to ten (theocrat). The website supplements the candidate rankings with a series of religion-based news posts and a graph of their ranking over time. The eight Democrats average an even six, while the nine Republicans check in at a shade above seven. -Eric Kelsey
