Indeed, and globally 1.2 billion wouldn't even cover the Catholics, this is assuming he was only talking about Christians alive today of course, and that wasn't at all clear to me, but perhaps plucking stats about billions out of thin air, from one anecdotal chat with a couple, who by his own admission had "not given their believes any thought" (priceless by the way), is something the finer university philosophy departments teach? Along with John knowing what most psychologists know, and all statisticians think, right off the cuff. 

What's most disappointing is that not once has anyone cited Aristotle.
OMFG, look what AI found...

"The first philosopher to cite what we now know as the hasty generalization fallacy was Aristotle. In his work "Sophistical Refutations" (De Sophisticis Elenchis), Aristotle identified various logical errors, including what he called "generalizing quickly and sloppily". This aligns with the modern understanding of hasty generalization, which is the act of drawing a conclusion about a larger population based on a small or unrepresentative sample."
