I hope you all are noticing the divergent responses. Is anyone surprised how broadly people perceive the numbers of people in Christendom's various memberships?

a). I'd say about 10%
b) A fundamentalist Christian would, by definition, believe in Creation, but there are some Catholics who believe in it, too, so I say 15%
c) I think only fundamentalists teach about the rapture, so I say 10%. However, I don't really know, this could be as high as 80% for all I know, because I am not worried about it. What happens happens.
d) a little over 50%. This is actually a fact, and does not need an opinion.

e) 12%. Once again, this is a fact, taken from the previous website, not an opinion.
f) What do you mean by Liberal Christian? Do you mean a Christian who believes in equal right for all? If so, then I would say most Christians do, while some speak out against, say, gay marriage. However, if you mean a die-hard Liberal Christian, who believes in extreme feminism and abortion, there are probably less that 1% who think that way.
g) I have no idea.

It's really difficult to calculate the percentage, cause many people that are registered to be of a religion can be in reality atheists. I appear in the statistics as christian orthodox, and I am actually agnostic, so you see..... :)

I've never met a fundamentalist liberal.
Too tired to do math.

the first guy is dumb, christian is a western version of catholicism. like most religions things have been altered and different beliefs have been made in each religion, but when it all started there were only like 2 religions. and today there should only be 2 religions, believers and non believers. all religion does is cause war over who is right and who is wrong and no one is right!

No one can tell for sure. We can only speculate.
I wonder, though....I doubt anyone can be both fundamentalist and liberal.
