The Earth is becoming Christian at a very fast clip.

If we work harder we can eradicate all those other blasphemous religions.

A rather vague list.

Specific under-reported items might include:

1. Oil-for-food scandal
2. Able Danger
3. WMDs that were found in Iraq
4. Progress in rebuilding Iraq
5. Afganistan progress
6. Adscam
7. The domestic economic boom
8. Sandy Berger

"With no financial need for buildings or pastors (and no sermons!), growth exploded to 20,000 new house churches in 2002."

No pastors or sermons? That doesn't sound like a Christian model to me.

In recent years, he says: Illiteracy has plunged from 53 percent to 20 percent .

He must not be including this country. The statistic here is approximately 40% illiteracy.

In answer to simple, sustained prayer, we now often see bars and crack houses shutting down, poverty fading, heathen temples being shuttered for lack of interest, government corruption being exposed and stopped, anti-Christian hostility waning, crime rates plunging, etc.

such a simple...simple...solution

It sure would've been nice if he had foot-noted or linked each of his 10 points.

That breaks down to 175,000 a day (births plus conversions minus deaths).

Uh, births? So someone can just be 'born' Christian and never has to make a personal decision about Jesus?

This is a re-post. The #1 not reported story is Able Danger, hands down.

Our life expectancy has hit 77.6 years (or more if you wear a dress)

I don't know if my skin is thick enough to start wearing a skirt.
Might just have to bite the bullet and resign myself to dying younger.

Islam is doomed – and along with it, militant Islamism.....I agree, except I think that eliminating the militants will be the driving force that destroys islam. Islam needs lunatics and terrorists in charge in order to keep the "flock" together. When the threat of a horrible death is removed, a lot of mohammadians will leave right then...especially women.

This is why we must keep pressure on the mullas and imams and take care of them one by one.

Indonesia, Earth's largest Muslim nation, is now 30 percent Christian.

No way.

– even the discovery of diamonds in one newly Christian area!

While God sent the diamonds to Christians, she sent a tsunami to wipe out a bunch of those pagans!

Way to go God!!!

Combat deaths have hit their lowest point since World War II, dropping perhaps below 20,000.

About 50% of the number of US automotive deaths in 2001.

Or way shorter if you're a guy who regularly wears a dress!
