...remember...no more statements for such outlandish comments..I don't believe the more fantastic the more likely to be miraculous...I want to know the facts you people base these figures on..the Western church has its lies too...but luckily we have the facts that show their claims to be lies...I need your FACTS..not 100 more scholars all agreeing with each other...

....this kind of calculus is fraught with all sorst of problems...you could NEVER make a credible cencus with this kind of methodology...it's barely even an educated guess...but let's see it...I hope it's more than St Gregroy, the Dim Bulb, said so.

>He came up with 80 million. That number is ONE QUARTER of the world's population at the time (13th century).

...that about sinks it as fact and enshrines it as fantasy...simply impossible...beyond all reason.

>ONE QUARTER of the world's population....WITHOUT an army, WITHOUT a Constantine, WITHOUT sponsorship of any state or king....and, most importantly, WITHOUT forced conversions.

...calm down..I can feel your cock rising with each cap....this is obviously absurd...if it was THAT popular, nothing would have stopped it...Muslims were slaughtered as well yet they bounced back to former nummbers..how come you all went dowm hill even faster?

>That's what scares you so, isn't it? This flies in the face of EVERYTHING the Western Church did to obtain converts.

...It doesn't scare me at all..it convinces me that you are liars of HUGE proportions and that when you LIKE your lie a lot..you tend to believe it uncritcally A LOT!!!

...give me the method and the figures and the time frames etc that are used to get this delightful but preposterous number...
