Bwild: [ but...since we're talkin religion...not many "true" Christians out there. ]
How can you possibly know that? Even if you don't believe in God, then by definition alone it can only be true that God knows how many true Christians there are. Even if you polled everyone in the world, and they all gave honest answers, you still wouldn't know. Who is qualified to judge all of the hearts and minds and actions of everyone?
Not everyone who calls themselves Christian are saved for Him, and not everyone who do not call themselves Christian are not saved. It's all explained in a book I think you may have heard of...
It's amazing that there are critics of the Bible, who have read it all the way through, and yet they still don't know what the Bible teaches. This isn't hypocrisy, but I can't at the moment think of what to call this. Willful ignorance?
And it doesn't matter if the source for any information on numbers is pro or con, no one but God can know this.
