Where do you get that from?

Now, they're talking about raw numbers, there, so it's not surprising. With a population that huge, they can out number America with Christians and still have Christianity be a solidly minority position in the country.
The article I linked uses the wording "most Christian nation" which is misleading as hell, since most people think in terms of rate and not raw numbers when wording things like that. Technically, by their measure, in 15 years, China will simultaneously be the most Christian and most atheist nation.
All semantics aside, Christianity is growing in China. It's shrinking in most of the developed world, but religion is growing in much of the undeveloped world.
