“A hundred years from now Catholicism will still be the dominate religion in Brazil.”

That’s an unknowable truth claim that you can’t prove. As such, it is just an assertion.

Will you still count them if they never attend or practice the faith - as 90% of Belgian Romans do not?

If it were my church, I wouldn’t count them. At that point, membership is meaningless to the 90%.

Given the roman church is bleeding brazilians as it an artery was severed, I find your claim doubtful. 42 million gone to Protestant churches and counting over a few decades. Now you want to talk about a century from now...

I needed a good laugh tonight. News flash: The Catholic Church is growing, not shrinking.
