So . . . are you prepared to tell us . . .

what is the near accurate approximate percentage of those

COUNTED as Roman Catholics

who ACTUALLY PRACTICE THEIR ‘FAITH?’

Enquiring minds are eager to know.

. . . if it’s possible to get a rush answer before Jesus returns . . .

"what is the near accurate approximate percentage of those COUNTED as Roman Catholics who ACTUALLY PRACTICE THEIR ‘FAITH?’

"That is a complex question that requires a complex answer.

* What percentage of American Catholics, at some point in their lives do not practice the faith or practice faithfully? That number is as high as 70%.

* What percentage of American Catholics at any given time or election are not practicing? That number, depending on the election cycle, the economy and a number of other factors is between 25 and 45%.

* What percentage of Catholics over the age of 65 are practicing faithfully? That number is approaching 90%, although the hippie generation may shift those numbers.

Do you have a similar break down for Protestants?
