The numbers were provided by the USCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCB, and the details were not covered correctly by USA Today.

But then again, what better way to counter Jones' book than to begin to cite statistics in a way that make things look better than they are.

As usual with you, don't let facts get in the way of your worldview.

Yes they were. You accept the word of some author over the authoritative source, which is in the business of collecting these statistics.

The statistics flatly deny Jones' numbers. There are twice as many converts as he says there are.

Of course, that ruins Jones' theory that the Church is going to hell.
