The Wrong Three Letter Word

Lately in The Episcopal Church all it seems anyone is talking about is s-e-x, or at least that seems to be the media image/public preception. When really the three letter would we should be talking about is G-o-d. But this apparent problem is not just limited to The Episcopal Church or even the broader worldwide Anglican Communon, of which The Episcopal Church is just one part. I did a little seacrh using Google Trends and found out that "sex" is more Googled than God, even though both get about the same amount of press coverage.

What was really interesting was the data for top ten languges, regions, and cities that this Googling was done in, as according to Google Trends (and the ratio of "sex" to "God" was very inequal in every case):
