Fuck This "Xtian Nation" Shit!

[Lion IRC]

I think I've had it with non-sense!
This is what the question was in the 2006 census (LINK):


Notice that "no religion" is an option.
The "not stated/inadequately described" is simply people using their right not to answer an optional question.

In the 2011 census, it looked like this (LINK):


Notice the similarities.

In 2006, the people who answered "no religion" were 18.7% of the total population, according to the link you, Lion IRC, provided here:

I already said my stats came from the EXACT SAME SITE.

Heres the link.

Every single stat I quoted is factual. Wanna argue with me?
Bring it!

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

Total # Christians in 2011 up 3.6% from 2006

Total # Catholics up 6.1% from 2006

Those are the ABS stats.
Now what have you got...apart from blather?



See ronedee, thats the difference between me and him.

I would NEVER assume my opponent thought I was so incredibly stupid that they could get away with passing off made-up stats.

DUH....you must think I'm stupid and swallow everything I'm told

Me - "no, why would I think that?

In 2011, the people who answered "no religion" were 22.3% of the total population, according even to the information you wrote.


"Religion not stated" is something entirely different.
Yes, in 2006, there were 11.9% of the population who did not state their religion (your table S7.5 LINK):


This is what the stats look like in 2011 (LINK):


If you do the math, the total percentage there does not add up to 100%. Instead, it adds up to 90.8%, meaning that the "religion not stated" percentage for 2011 is 9.2%.

So, in total.
2006:
-> no religion = 18.7%
-> Religion not stated = 11.9%
+ Sum of these two = 30.6%

2011:
-> no religion = 22.3% (more than in 2006)
-> Religion not stated = 9.2% (less than in 2006)
+ Sum of these two = 31.5% (more than in 2006)


As for the christian numbers you're claiming... I don't see them.
Table S7.5 from 2006 and the table I put up show:

-> 2006 total christians => 63.9%
-> 2011 total christians => 61.1% (less than in 2006)

From Table S7.5
Total Christians '000
2006 - 12685.9
2011 - 13150.6

Now - True or False?
13,150,600 is GREATER than 12,685,900

Take your time. Dont rush it.

To work out the percentage increase...
13150.6 ÷ 12685.9 = 1.036 (x100)

WOW
Thats amazing!
3.6% increase
What a coincidence. THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WROTE!
