"A lot of these old religions prior to Christianity are being E icked up by racists to use as a ve- icle," Rev. Emmett Solomon, for mer chief chaplain for the Texas prison system, said in Monday's editions of the Corpus Christi Caller-Times. Solomon said he fielded hun dreds of religious freedom com plaints as prison chaplain, ranging from those of irate convicts who had been kicked out of prison church choirs to those of Indian inmates who wanted sweat lodges. Solomon, who retired earlier this month, said racial motives are behind requests by black inmates who want Nation of Islam meet ings and white inmates who want to start an Odinist church. "There is currently a good deal of interest in the Nation of Islam," Solomon said. "But we have a Muslim program going. They claim they are a separate religion from Islam, but if they don't want to be a part of it, they don't have to be." Odinists, whose beliefs are based on an old Norse religion, re vere European ancestry. Incarcerated gang members also try to use the religious free dom issue to hide the real purpose of meetings they hold within state prisons, officials say. A prison gang known as the Mexican Mafia, which officials say runs drugs and orders murders, has asked to hold religious meet ings. ©I'm Ja*«« J3 & fmT ! By Jason Another prison gang, the Self Defense Family, has asked to or ganize a Moorish Science Temple of America. "Some of these may be legiti mate religions," said Assistant At torney General Adrian Young. "But they really just want to con gregate and conduct gang activi ty" An average of about 90 prison lawsuits are filed each month, ac cording to the state attorney gen eral's office. Young said inmate lawsuits are not broken down into categories, but he estimated that 10 percent of the 2,000 pending cases are filed on First Amendment grounds. State attorneys said one lawsuit “3S8T- filed by a group of femaleins sought to form a religious of zation for witches - thed of Wicca. But the inmate asked to keep paraphernali their cells that could beet® ered contraband, includine ture that told them howler alcoholic beverages, attoifl said. "Another thing they wantcl do was practice a ceremom I closed room, with no observ from security, that involved'! use of knives," said SharonB an assistant attorney general ' handled the lawsuit. "No security and knivesi big concern of ours, andwel no," she said. llliiili! Most married couples do not commit adultery The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The vast majority of married Americans don't cheat on their spouses, a sex re searcher says, disputing claims that adultery is ram pant. About 15 percent of married or previously married Americans have cheated on a spouse, estimates Tom W. Smith of the National Opinion Research Center. Perhaps 3 percent to 4 percent of husbands and wives have a sexual partner outside their marriage in a given year, said Smith, director of the center's General Social Survey. "There are probably more scientifically worthless 'facts' on extramarital relations than on any other facet of human behavior," Smith said Monday in a report at an American Enterprise Institute seminar. Smith said TV talk shows and popular magazines commonly report much higher numbers of marital cheaters. Author Shere Hite wrote that 75 percent of women married more than five years reported having affairs in response to her questionnaire. And in a 1990 maga zine article. Dr. Joyce Brothers said 50 percent of mar ried women have had affairs. "The problem has been the lack of good scientific information," Smith said in an interview. "There's been a vacuum. And when you have a vacuum, some- researcher says thing fills it up. It may be Phil Donahue, it nu Shere Hite." Other studies have found affairs to be more cl mon than the General Social Survey did, but still' below estimates often repeated in the popular me: The Kinsey Institute of Sex Research at Indiana versify estimated in 1990 that 37 percent of man men and 29 percent of married women have beer faithful. An ABC News-Washington Post national telepf poll in 1987 found that 89 percent of respondents^ they never had an affair while married. The General Social Survey has found the level oft tramarital activity basically unchanged since 19$ first survey on the subject. Smith said. The studies suggest that extramarital affairs more common among younger people thanann' those born before 1940. Fewer people age 50 or ol report having had an affair. Smith said. Smith also said infidelity is more commonaiftf residents of large central cities, among those who] tend church less often, among those who havebecF vorced, among people unhappy with their mam: and among blacks compared to whites. The sum found little difference by socioeconomic status. About 1,400 people.are interviewed in person'' year for the national General Social Survey. Quest' about sexual behavior are answered on a private,"' ten questionnaire at the end of the interview. Nigerian Continued from Page 1 to end Somalia's civil war last De cember, have sought to stir up So malis by warning that the West wants to make them Christians. Shantali appeared to be treated more harshly by his captors than Durant. An Aidid militiaman "held my leg and twisted my foot. They were afraid I am a soldier and I can run away," he said, after hobbling in on crutches. "I had no clothes. I was naked. They chained my right hand to my injured leg. Then they chained my other hand to the chair. That was for a complete two weeks," he said, displaying scars on his wrists and ankles. Shantali, like most Somalis, is Muslim, but was not allowed to wash five times a day before pray ing, as his religion requires. J He said conditions improved ter he was allowed to see of(i f T of the International Red CL though he was warned nottoc i || plain.
