Ninety Three Percent of North Americans Are Christians
Who in the U.S. are NOT ChristiansAs of today, June 29, 2008, the population of the US is 304,468,991 of which 7% or 21,312,000 claim NOT to be Christians:
The LAW for the 283,156,991 of us who DO claim to be "Christians" CANNOT ever change, and it is the following: But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person, 1 Corinthians 5:13"Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbor", Leviticus 19:15 "Ye shall not respect persons in judgment; but ye shall hear the small as well as the great; ye shall not be afraid of the face of man; for the judgment is God's: and the cause that is too hard for you, bring it unto me, and I will hear it", Deuteronomy 1:17 "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?" 2 Corinthians 6:14 "Now we command you, brethren, on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us", 2 Thessalonians 3:6
How are we to "withdraw [our]selves"? How do we "put away" the wicked and the non-believer? How do we remove those we are "unequally yoked together" with? WHO will do this? Certainly not the 5 million jews, 2 1/2 million black Muslims, 7 million Arabs or Iranians, 3 million atheists, nor 3 million Indians, because it is THEY who must be removed. Certainly not most of the 54 million Catholics, because they are Hispanics who also must be removed:
Sodomy & women "preachers"Because so many Protestant denominations have ordained women and homosexuals as "priests", "pastors", and other leaders in the church, the only Godly thing for a Protestant to do today is to avoid with all their heart and condemn with all their might these anti-Christ "churches". The result is that MOST Protestants no longer belong to or support an organized "church" and thus are no longer counted as members. But that doesn't mean they're not still Protestants, because if that were the standard, then almost all of our PROTESTANT Founding Fathers, who were 99% of our Founders, could not be counted as Protestants, or even Christians.
jew Weiss IMPOSES judaism on our children
If all non-Christians want spoken prayers in public schools, then of the 199 million, 20 million want non-Christian prayers and 179 million want Christian prayers. Most jews seem to have the opinion of Dr. Richard Weiss:
Atheists and agnostics don't want spoken prayers, so if it's assumed that Muslims want Mulsim prayer, Buddhists want Buddhist prayer, other religionists want their kind of prayer, and that all Christians want a Christian prayer, then a maximum of 6.6 million of the 199 million who want spoken prayers want a prayer other than a Christian prayer, and 192.4 million want Christian prayers. This is 72.9% of all Christians and 67.7% of all Americans, enough public support for a Constitutional amendment to exile jews like Weiss.

Statistics of the world's religions are only very rough approximations. Aside from Christianity, few religions, if any, attempt to keep statistical records; and even Protestants and Catholics employ different methods of counting members. All persons of whatever age who have received baptism in the Catholic Church are counted as members, while in most Protestant Churches only those who join the church are numbered. The compiling of statistics is further complicated by the fact that in China one may be at the same time a Confucian, a Taoist, and a Buddhist. In Japan, one may be both a Buddhist and a Shintoist.

http://www.gallup.com/poll/releases/pr990709.asp [Do you favor] "Allowing daily prayer to be spoken in the classroom":
Note that even this poll from the leftist Gallup Organization shows that 70% of the American population favors spoken daily prayers in the classroom, which is now 198.8 million people who DO want school prayer, versus 79.5 million who reportedly don't. This leftist poll even shows that 85% of Americans, or 241 million of them, are Christians. But when all of the members of Christian churches, and other Christians who aren't members of organized churches, are added up, the figure is 93%, or 264 million. In other words, more than a quarter of a billion Americans are Christians. This leaves us with the following possible combinations. At one extreme, if all of those who want school prayer are Christians, then the figures are:
At the other extreme, if all of those who want school prayer are the non-Christians, then the figures are:
Either way this is evaluated, those who oppose school prayer are a small MINORITY. Do you really, really believe, deep down in your heart, that a MINORITY group of pagans and other non-Christians and pseudo-Christians should be permitted to control what the MAJORITY group of Christians want? Those who *do* believe that ought to be just packed up and shipped out. If you want to get an idea of what this country will look like in 20 years if we don't do just that, take a trip to Russia, where former Christians are still wandering around wondering what happened to their own culture.

A competing view of of the Christian population in the US is from Mapquest which reports that only 84% or 244 million of Americans are Catholics or Protestants http://go.hrw.com/atlas/norm_htm/usa.htm
***As a percentage*** there are fewer Christians in the US than there are in most Christian nations, AND as an absolute number, there are more Christians in India and China than there are in the US. Only 84% of Americans are Catholics or Protestants, compared to 100% in Belgium and Ireland, 99% in Italy, Portugal, Monaco, and Spain, 98% in Germany and Denmark, 92% in France and Netherlands, 91% in Iceland, 90% in Finland, and 89% in Sweden and Norway. Another interesting point about our "ally" in "Israel"--only 2% of its population is now Christians, down from 42% in 1923, which means there are 2,000 times as many Christians in China and 1,040 times as many in India!!! ***As a percentage*** of the population, compared to Israel, there are 20 times as many Christians in Ethiopia, 15 times as many in Lebanon, 5 times as many in Syria, 4 times as many in Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, 3 times as many in Sudan, Jordan, and Egypt--AND FIFTY PERCENT MORE IN IRAQ!!! A very small percentage of jews can pervert an entire once-powerful Christian nation.
Protestants soon to be minority in U.S., study findsJuly 21, 2004 BY CATHLEEN FALSANI Religion Reporter America's Protestant majority is about to disappear, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Chicago. Since the pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock nearly 400 years ago, America has been a largely Protestant nation. But as early as the end of this year, Protestants likely will make up less than 51 percent of the population for the first time in history, sociologists at the university's National Opinion Research Center surmise in a new report released Tuesday. According to survey results from more than 43,000 Americans gathered over the last 30 years, the percentage of Protestants in the national population has shrunk from 63 percent in 1993 to 52 percent in 2002. Surveys defined Protestant as any Christian denomination that was formed at the time of the Reformation or thereafter, including groups such as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, said Tom Smith, director of the NORC's General Social Survey, where most of the data was collected. "Our projection is that the Protestant percentage in the 2004 survey will probably be somewhere between 50 and 51 percent," Smith said. "It's particularly striking because for 30 years, it was absolutely stable.'' Smith said media have covered "the rise of nontraditional American religions ... and the rise of people without any faith, but what was missing from that story was, OK, the number of people with no faith was rising but nobody was paying attention to where they were coming from." In the last 30 years, the number of people who say they were brought up with no religion at all has risen from 2 percent to 7 percent, according to the NORC report. From 1993 to 2002, the number of people who said they had no religion rose from 9 percent to nearly 14 percent, and in that same time period the number of people who said they were raised Protestant fell from 64 percent to about 56 percent. "There is some evidence that a large portion of this problem is that a fair number of marginal Protestants are not really engaged in their faith and therefore didn't pass it on to their kids," Smith said. "The mom and dad would say, for example, 'Yeah, we're Methodists,' but they never went to church. They'd baptize their kids and that's about it." If the Protestant majority does indeed disappear, the United States will be a nation of religious minorities. The next largest religious group after Protestant is Roman Catholic, at about 25 percent. The Catholic population has remained stable over the last decade, according to the NORC study. "The Catholic defection is [also] pretty large, but they are being replaced by immigrants," said R. Stephen Warner, a professor of sociology at the University of Illinois at Chicago, after reviewing the NORC report. "Christianity is becoming a religion of people of color. Part of this is the decline of the WASP." The Rev. John Buchanan, pastor of Chicago's 5,200-member Fourth Presbyterian Church, said he welcomes the demise of the Protestant majority. "I'm not applauding the Protestant decline . . . what I'm applauding is the viability of a truly diverse nation, a nation that opens its arms and heart to different races, different religions," said Buchanan, whose own congregation is bucking trends by doubling its attendance in the last decade. "I think that's a better place to be than a nation that's dominated by one religion -- whatever it is." RELIGIOUS TRENDS PERCENTAGE OF THE U.S. POPULATION

In the above Gallup Poll, had Founding Fathers like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson, as well as many of our nation's leaders and politicians today, been asked which church they're affiliated with, they would have been listed in the "no preference" category, indicating that a large percentage if not all in that catetory are Christians who are not members of organized churches. Conversely, jews and Muslims are identified by the fact that they ARE affiliated with with established organizations. The fact that Muslims in 1996 and 2002, and agnostics and atheists in 1996 were too few in number to be rounded off to one percent, suggests that their appearance in other years may be due to the extremely small sample size of most Gallup polls, whose margin of error is larger than these figures. This would mean that as many as 95% of Americans in 1996, 93% in 2001, and 94% in 2002, identified themselves as Christians.
