My question is: Out of all of the stats, it says that there are 2.1 billion christians in the entire world.
How many of these christians would you guess to be true christians?

IF by the words "True Christian" you mean perfection at all times, then you could say 0%, but that doesn't mean that they are all not Christian at all. This is one religion that admits and has compassion for people who aren't perfect at all times, Nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes. Sometimes we know it was a mistake, other times we don't know it was a mistake, and we still need to learn and improve and grow.
ONLY Jesus was perfect, true Christian, Even his disciples weren't perfect, they messed up, and Jesus had to bail them out or forgive and move on.
Peace be with you ! :)

Very few. A good percentage of Church going folk are actually Atheist, just terrified of what their "friends" will think if they knew.
Also, what does it mean to be a "true Christian"? Believe that some chick gave birth without having sex to the son of God who ended up being cruxified and then resurrected, only to float up to heaven on a cloud?

That's like asking, "How many licks does it take to get to the tootsie-roll center of a tootsie-pop?" The world may never know.

Jesus said the way is narrow and few find it. I would say the percentage is low.

not sure,but there are certainly plenty who call themselves christian,even if only,to make themselves look a better person,when they do not know what christian means,and they do not live by the bible.

The ones that do the above.

due to doctrine error alone I would say that there would be less than 5% that are following the bible as God intended it.
