Not even a forum full of people in his own echo chamber wanted him around.  

Thanks !!
Very interesting. 
I was going to look for that. I knew it had to exist. 
They also think he is a heretic. 
https://www.cathinfo.com/the-sacred-cath...or-xavier/

Pray a rosary for Xavier. 

Addition : 

As I expected, (I kept forgetting to check here), he was also rejected by Sucipe Domine, another "Trad" (traditional) Catholic Forum. 
https://www.suscipedomine.com/forum/inde...ic=22778.0
https://www.suscipedomine.com/forum/inde...ic=27616.0
Not sure he was banned, but I'm not going through 21 pages of banning just to see.

I have always suspected his name is Xavier. Xavier was the name of one (or two) of their saints. It's not an Indian surname.
On his website, he celebrates Archbishop Lefebvre, who was excommunicated ( https://www.catholicculture.org/culture/...ecnum=1224), and was the founder of the
notorious Society of Pius X, (HUGE pedophile scandals, all over the place).

Benedict 16th lifted the excommunication of surviving bishops, saying they exercise no legitimate ministry.

The irony of being unconvincing to your own fellow christians and expecting to make any sort of headway on an atheist forum.

Thought doxing and so on was Forbidden by the Rules.

Yeah, I got banned from a trad forum, mainly for Criticizing Sede-Vacantism. I doubt most Atheists know what that is, so I won't go into it here.

Now, in the other thread, I read and shared a source that there are something like - what was it - 170 MN or so - Atheists in the world, far less than I thought. In light of that, I need to update/revise some of my projections/predictions for World Religious Demographics 2050 that I made on the First Page.

Let me get the data and then do that.

Just saw this. Hitler and Stalin were Murderers. You should read some St. John: "Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him."

Good Men, including Good Christian Men, rightly fought those Terrible Thugs Hitler and Stalin.

That's 1 Jn 3:15 btw. FYI. God is not a Tyrant. He is the Most Loving Father to His Children and the Kindest Friend to all Souls of Good Will who seek Truth. If you saw Him face to face, you would be overwhelmed by the Goodness and Beauty Jesus Christ now has in Heaven and shows to all Who love Him, as some Saints have reported in our Catholic Visions, and some people even in your relatively secular veridical NDE's.

On to the data.

The opportunistic cultist always think there are everywhere people ignorant and foolish enough to be gullible even to him. And are always looking for the opportunity to leverage that into a ago boosting opportunity to parlay their own ignorance and foolishness into “god’s work”

Yup, here is the post: See this for the Worldwide Data: https://research.lifeway.com/2022/01/31/...y-in-2022/

Quote:"While the number of all religious people is growing at a 1.27% rate, the growth rate of nonreligionists is less than half that—0.52%, well below the total population growth percentage. In particular, the number of atheists is almost stagnant, only growing 0.18% per year.

There are fewer atheists around the world today (147 million) than in 1970 (165 million), according to the 2022 Status of Global Christianity report.CLICK TO TWEET
There are fewer atheists around the world today (147 million) than in 1970 (165 million), and the Gordon-Conwell report expects the number to continue to decline into 2050.

Now, in the OPs in the First Page, I'd assumed Atheism must be like 350 MN or so, hence I thought ok, maybe it will grow to 500 MN in 2050.

Apparently, the number of Atheists in the world is going to be even LESS than 147 MN as it is today, in 2050, lol. Some major revisions are in order.

Here's the post and it needs some reworking and updating in light of this more specific data:

"The World's 10 BN Souls will probably look like this in 2050:

1. Christianity far ahead ruling the field and owning the game at 4 BN.
2. Islam in 2nd place at around 3 BN.
3. Hinduism in 3rd place at 1.5 BN.

That already accounts for 8.5 BN or about 85% of the expected World's Population at the time.

4. Buddhism and the World's Folk Religions at around 1 BN.
5. Atheism at around 500 MN or less. Let's hope that Militant Atheism - a fringe of a fringe that believes God not only does not exist but also, absurdly, that it is allegedly EVIL to believe that He does, which is itself Evil on their part - will be 50 MN or less.

If Christ and, say, Darwin or Marx were running for King of the Universe, Christ would be owning and Darwin/Marx losing badly."

Fuxxake - even I didn't get banned from SD, I just got bored and forgot the user name and password I had for there.
