You're citing a Wikipedia page and I'm getting my data from Gallup. You remember Gallup don't you? A mere 3 years changes very little.No I was not wrong about 93% believing in God or a Higher Power.
73 cited scholarly sources from all over the world going to 2017 and 2018 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_atheism
Your gallup poll is from 2015 and yes I remember Gallup who said he can prove God statistically. It is mathematically impossible to be an atheist.
And you are rubbish about logic and math, which is why you have the wrong number and why your claims of mathematical impossibility are hilarious.
Nowhere in your linked Wikipedia article is 93% mentioned. You arrived at that number by taking the 7% your article cited and claiming all the rest as religious. Your friend Mr. Gallup says that you can't do that because there's a middle group of 22% that's neither confirmed atheist nor confirmed religious. They're just plain old not religious and don't really give a damn. Confirmed religious is 63%. 66% once you factor out people who didn't respond. The rest are non-believers. You get 2 out of 3 at best.
