Catholics 25% and decreasing in Australia is not a majority. And Gays are 1% Do you even have a point? That you are wrong twice. The major one ... claiming majority of Australians are catholic. If you get such basics wrong, why take your posts seriously? You're wrong again. According to the 2011 Census: Roman Catholic (25.3%) Anglican (17.1%) Other Christian (18.7%) Buddhism (2.5%) Islam (2.2%) Hinduism (1.3%) Other Non-Christians (1.2%) No Religion (22.3%) Not stated or unclear (9.4%) And again. 25% is not the majority. It actually is, but I think we're more concerned about why you failed basic mathematics at school. If the Coalition gets 45% of the vote and the ALP gets 40% while others get 15%, the Coalition still received the majority of votes because 45% is more than 40% and way more than 15%. Statistics. A majority = greater than 50% A minority = less than 50% 25% is a minority Out of all of the other religious groups involved in the Census, Catholics were the majority with 25.3%. Next was no religion with 22.3%. Clearly, the majority of Australians subscribe to the Roman Catholic religion. Thanks for shifting the goal post ... yet why bother except to fix up your claim to something completely different, posted originally. What the fook are you on about??? I've not changed a thing. Gawd, you're dumb!!!  You responded to me correcting Maria's claim that catholics are the majority, and she did not state of christians. You shifted the goal posts to try and correct your error. That's just lazy and unethical. If you are going to go into battle for maria, don't start cheating. WRONG. You asserted - wrongly - that Catholics are not the majority religion in Australia. I showed you irrefutable proof that they are, with the next closest religious group being other Christians, comprising 18.7% of the population and non-religious people comprising 22.3% of the population. It's a clear majority. If you want to include all of Christianity under the one umbrella, then that is by far the majority religion in this country, with 61.1% of the population. Other religions comprise just 7.2% of the population. Time for you to simply acknowledge you were wrong. Wrong. Try rereading the thread. Maria claimed catholics were the majority ... and not of christians. They ARE, dumbass. At 25.3%, they are the majority - of all other religions and those who are non-religious in this country! Parrotting your error doesn't fix your error. Quote:According to the 2011 Australian National Census, there were 5,439,257 Catholics in Australia. This represented 25.3% of the overall Australian population 25% is not the majority of Australians ... what Maria was incorrectly arguing.
