That's utter garbage that you should be ashamed of posting. People converting to Christianity is no more significant than people converting to Islam. It's a sign of effective proselytization, nothing else. It's a fact that people convert to religions you would consider nearly meritless. It's a fact that people convert FROM Christianity. If Christianity was the only religion able to gain converts, that would at least be interesting. Doubling the percentage of PRC Christians from 2.3% of the population to 4.6% would not exactly take my breath away.
Christianity: The true religion because it invests more in proselytization. Sheesh!
Now if millions of people started converting to Christianity from other cultures without ever seeing a Bible or hearing from a missionary, that would be interesting.
Pay attention. The claim was that the type of religious experiences were largely determined by CULTURE. A defeater for that is any large conversion of people from another culture. I have such a defeater: CHINA.
