Religious freedom
subject of many
prison lawsuits
JUST THE BEGINNING
The Associated Press
CORPUS CHRISTI - Dozens
of Texas inmates file lawsuits each
year in the name of religious free
dom, but a former prison chaplain
says hate — not religion — is the
real motive behind many of them.
"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.

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

no," she said.

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

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. His captors gave himapj

around their waists, and a malft
"full of bed bugs."
He said he was happy tocoiT

looking forward to going non"

friend he plans to marry.
