I got the 2006 info from the ABS census site too.

"No religion/Religion Not Stated''
2006 - 30.6%
2011 - 22.3%

I included the religion ''Not Stated" numbers which is a 2006 Census option that was absorbed/replaced by "No Religion" in 2011.

This is from my link which is from Australian Bureau of Statistics
Religious affiliation top responses___2011____%_____2006____%
Catholic______________________5,439,2682_25.3__5,126,885_25.8
No Religion____________________4,796,787_22.3__3,706,553_18.7
Anglican______________________3,679,907_17.1___3,718,248_18.7
Uniting Church_________________1,065,795__5.0___1,135,427_5.7
Presbyterian and Reformed_________599,515_2.8_____596,667_3.0
The Australian Bureau of Statistics clearly does not believe that "Not Stated" was absorbed by No Religion as you and everyone else can see from above. Check my link. The only changes I made was where it says Australia I replaced with 2011(less confusion IMO) and creating spaces to form columns(That was fucking frustrating).

Total # Christians in 2011 up 3.6% from 2006
Total population growth during that period up 8.3%

And you can bet that atheists arent contributing as much as theists to the population growth in .au

Was it Eric Kaufmann who said the contraceptive pill is like cyanide for atheism?

Are you trying to do a "Braveheart" line where if you can't get rid of them then you breed them out(something like that anyway). So the only way theists can increase actual numbers(not percentage to the population) is through breeding and not through reasoning. I agree, poor kids not allowed to think freely, I think it's called child abuse.

# Catholics up 6.1% from 2006
hock:
Thats a surprising jump.

'000

2006
5126.9

2011
5439.2

Since you used percentages first that is why I said christian religions were going down(proportion to population) as can be seen from above. So next time when you reply to one of my post please make sure you are not twisting it around and trying to make out that I am giving false data. Also try to provide links to your evidence, maybe one of our links is not from Australian Bureau of Statistics.

This is the post you seem to be ignoring. It shows me posting a link to refute your statement. My link has the year 2006 included whereas yours seems to show the difference for 2001 to 2011 and even then goes against what you are trying to state which is "No Religion" is reducing in the population. I also showed how the ABS seems to disagree with your notion that "Not Stated" was absorbed by "No Religion", look at my table.
Don't forget christian religions are falling as a percentage of the population.
