I think yoU miss the pont, tho. Yeah, they didnt have to put it that way, but Folktlale...I think he means it is ancient scripture and should be regarded as such, not as literal truth. Oh he's left? I'm done. Whatever.

And the world is flat. Uber-million Christians? The largest religion, Christianity. The largest denomination, Catholicism. The most popular area for Catholicism, Africa - a third world continent. The Catholic conversion techniques - withholding aid from the unconfirmed. On the other hand, the largest growing religion (including in most Western countries), Islam.
Primary socialisation and the inaccessibility of facts, resources and education are the reasons for which the Christian religion remains so large in the 21st Century. Hell, Christianity only holds the sway it does in America as a result of the rebirth-drive that far right fundamentalists had in the '70s, guilting people with talk of higher morals as a method of converting people to their pseudo-theology. Coupled with the massive conversion tactics of the US penal system and the favour shown to reborn Christians ... Not really a great argument in your favour. Maybe because fundamentalist Christians and far-right Conservatives are the two most detrimental forces in Western society, and the fact that you sit yourself so happily amongst them doesn't really bode well for your future popularity?
