You know why your post is so funny although I don't know if you are included but so many of your type of christians including your comrade butterflyleo has been proclaiming that christianity is not a religion but a lifestyle, however when it comes to statistices you start boasting that christianity is popular even in the western nations. I am not arguing against the statistics but the fact remains that these countries we are talking of are not religious in terms of the influence of religion on their lifestyle, look at me for instance,my National Identity card says I'm a Christian and in as much as I am still under my parents I will officially identify as such but of course I'm an atheist.
Likewise in western countries like Denmark,religion is more like a tradition or culture,people identify as Christians but we know that they are not into religion

dalaman:
Of course the more developed a country is the less religious the country and it's institutions are.

winner01:
China has a christian population of more than 1,349,585,838, U.S.A (316, 668,567), Nigeria (174,507,539), Russia (142,500,482), Japan (127,253,075).


But no, Nigeria is regressing because of the number of Christians abi

Animal!!!

After I disproved your bullshit you resort to story telling, same thing dalaman does

How can you say Religion depends on how advanced a country is? Are you normal?

Before I reply you let me ask if dalaman or TayserMahiri agrees with you

TayserMahiri:
In fact its not just advancement. Even education level attainment and IQ Both are inversely proportional to religious belief. Even in those Muslim countries that are more advanced such as the Emirates its just that religion is forced on them by a sword. Dare to leave it and die. If their stupid laws became less stringent people would quickly and gladly peal the fake religion skin and reveal their true selves. So yeah, people are less likely to be religious if they come from developed countries. And thats because their social welfare replaces God very effectively, except the US. In poor countries people need God to fool themselves when things get thick, which they do almost every day

winner01 not like I am trying to be manipulative but if I were you I would not use those statistics. It is better for you guys that there are just I million christians on earth who are committed to the faith than there are 3 billion christians and over 90% of them barely read the bible up to twice monthly,in western countries like I said people identify with religion because it is part of their culture but even it at that people still muster courage to reject it,it barely affects how they live their lives and this reflects on everything you see in such countries,from their acceptance to certain ways of life condemned in the bible me to their attitude towards religious matters in general

winner01:
Do you know several Christians like myself also identify as irreligious because Christianity is not a religion?

dalaman:
Stop repeating this lie. China DOES NOT have more christians than Nigeria. There are much more christians in Nigeria than China.

darkchild64:
That is untrue,I don't agree that any Christian identifies as irreligious when filling an official document,it is not true

winner01:
I have 2 Mscs, 1PGD and on my Phd, why is my belief in God as strong as this considering that I was not always religious.

dalaman:
What is this nonsense? How many christians are there in China? China has a christian population of more than 1 billion people? You are a mad liar.

TayserMahiri:
Religious zealots lie without flinching. China has a total population of 1.3 billion so you are saying virtually everyone is a christian in China. Truth is, less than 100 million are christians in china (less than 4 %).

CAPSLOCKED:

I JUST CHECKED AGAIN AND SAW WHERE HE ACTUALLY WROTE THIS NONSENSE.

THERE ARE PEOPLE IN GERMANY AND SPAIN WHO SEE CHURCH AS A LEISURE ACTIVITY.
THEY GO THERE WHEN WE GO TO WATCH FOOTBALL. THEY GO THERE WHEN OTHERS GO ELSEWHERE TO WATCH MOVIES.

BUT YOU'LL NEVER HEAR THEM ASKING GOD FOR FAVORS OR MIRACLES. THEY VISIT THE HOSPITALS WHEN THEY'RE ILL AND ACTUALLY WORK TO GET THINGS DONE.

I'LL NEVER FORGET THE GIRL WHO ALMOST DIED FROM KIDNEY ISSUES IN MY ZONE BACK THEN. PRIDE DIDN'T ALLOW HER FAMILY ASK FOR DONATIONS, MADE US FEEL THEY DIDN'T WANT THE OPERATIONS BECAUSE OF THEIR CONNECTION TO A MIRACULOUS SKY DWELLING DEITY. GIRL WAS DYING, FAMILY KEPT PRAYING AND PAYING PASTORS TO VISIT.. UNTIL ONE OF THEIR WEALTHY RELATIVES STEPPED IN. SHE WAS FLOWN TO INDIA THAT YEAR.

SCIENTIFICALLY AND TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED PEOPLE DON'T FOLD THEIR ARMS PRAYING WHEN THEY HAVE BETTER OPTIONS. OUR BIGGEST DADDY GO'S IN NIGERIA GO ABROAD JUST TO TREAT A HEADACHE. THEY MOVE AROUND WITH TIGHT SECURITY AND BULLET PROOF VESTS, AND SELL UGLY APRONS, BIBLES AND ANOINTING OIL TO US FOR PROTECTION.

TayserMahiri:
You have your reasons. There are also uneducated people who are atheists and they have their reasons

Considering that most sources of the number of Christians in China are perverted (even Wikipedia) because of the Chinese government, the source below is inaccurate. Christianity has risen astronomically in China and this has forced the chinese government to crack down seriously on Christianity. Check one of my threads for source

Butterflyleo:
Yes it has risen which is why there are several reports declaring that the astronomical growth of Christianity in China is going through the roof and expected to be the largest in the world by 2030

darkchild64:
Exactly,people are less likely to pray if things are going on fine and that would make them less dependent on "God"
The problem the U.S has is the black population,the black man is naturally submissive

I'VE SEEN PEOPLE CALL HIM A LIAR ON MANY THREADS.

THIS IS THE DAY I SUPPORT THEM.

TayserMahiri:
The reasons vary but mostly it has to do with the American social welfare system which is the worst of all developed nations. If you are poor in the US you are almost as vulnerable almost as in a poor country. Also, the migrant populations keep religion strong in America for many reasons, among them because they dont want to be deported. Remember most of them are from poor countries and are susceptible in the capitalist system of America.

darkchild64:
He might be right in terms of statistics

winner01:
I thought atheism comes with education?

Butterflyleo:
Story story. Made up excuses as expected.

Butterflyleo:
China is ranked first in social welfare program but yet Christianity is surging there so what then would be your next excuse?

America is ranked 19th out of 44 which is not a bad position and last time I checked, even people from other developed countries still favour going to america.

I just gave you facts and if you cannot handle it then stay silent

You claim americas social welfare is the worst among developed countries and the real facts say they are ranked 19th out of 44 so who is lying?

darkchild64:
That is if you agree that christianity is a religion
You see the level of your hypocrisy,the other day you were arguing that christianity is NOT a religion,today you are supporting the claim that in China Christianiy(which in this instance is regarded as a religion) is surging
Your level of hypocrisy is at it's peak

winner01:
But USA has more number of Christians than Nigeria, why are they stipp developing?
