        I probably show up in some statistics as protestant.

        According to the guy I replied to that makes you an extremist.

        If you look up “% people in (your area) religious” you’ll find roughly 80% identify as one religion or another. If religion is the problem it’s 80% of the population.

              No, he said that he would probably be COUNTED as Protestant on some survey, those are rarely polled largely enough, and it’s certainly not a census.

              I still have records in the Mormon church, but I’m definitely not a Mormon any more. Would I be counted as one in those stats? Probably.
