Well, lets see, something like 85 percent of americans self identify as christians, and something like 95 percent of people have pre-marital sex ( fomication) ( see included link)
Assuming all are alike and that 19 in 20 have premarital sex, including christians. than of the approximaly 255 million christians ( out of 300 million) in the US, 242 millon of them are fornicators.
Even if we assume that all the people who are not chrsitians are fornicator and it thus skews the resulsts perhaps 200 million christians in the US are fornicators.
Of course these numbes are furthur effected, at least from a moral persepctive, by the fact that the one in 20 that don't have premarital sex are largly those who where too unattractive to find a sex partner.

I used to fornicate before I was saved (born again) . Now,I know better. The Lord forgave me of that and ALL my past sins,Praise God! Now when I fall into a certain sin( yes, Christians STILL sin) I acknowledge it and ask God for forgiveness and stength to overcome future temptations. Before one is saved , they DIVE into sin, whereas after being saved, one FALLS into sin, big difference.

everyone sins, some more than others.
everyone has the opportunity to be forgiven.
some people choose not to take advantage of that opportunity.

I don't know. I had an idea that fornication was more fun than that.
