If Mormons in Utah had a lower bankruptcy rate than non-Mormons in Utah, why does the article give credence to the "various commentators" who blame Mormon culture?

It's simple. Do the math: You can't be 56% of the pop without contributing to a bankruptcy rate almost twice the natl avg state-wise. (IOW, it's not simply 44% of Utah's non-Mormon population operating in severely lopsided ways as foreclosure-happy folks).

Huh? Your statement does nothing to answer the question. If the worst offenders are non-Mormon, why again is this the Mormons' fault? Something is definitely causing Utah's high forclosure rate, but to blame Mormons for something non-Mormons are doing is non sequitur.
