No, they don't.

Year nine maths, innit?

It's quite simple. When compared to other religions, the religion that comprises the majority of Australians is the Catholic Church. That this simple fact continues to elude you is not surprising to me.

Yet you quote states Australians and not Australian religionists .

Doesn't matter - the Census takes data from all Australians, not just those who are religious. Therefore I AM correct in stating that the majority of Australians are Catholic AND I was also correct in stating that of all religions, the majority of Australians subscribe to the Catholic Church.

Yet you claimed that catholics were the majority of Australians, and that is incorrect.

Focus. That wasn't the claim.

The claim was "Clearly, the majority of Australians subscribe to the Roman Catholic religion".

And, that's incorrect.

Capiche?

... and it's true -

Nope.

The claim was "Clearly, the majority of Australians subscribe to the Roman Catholic religion."

And that's completely incorrect.

Only a quarter of Australians subscribe to the Roman Catholic religion.

Even Longy understands that a quarter isn't "the majority".

I'll break it down real simple for you because you're obviously real slow. Just over 25% of Australians indicate they are Catholic. That's more than any other religion. Ergo, it stands that the Catholic Church is the predominant religion in this country and therefore the majority of Australians - just over 25% when you take into account other religions and those of no religion - are Catholic.

Is 10% of the population really gay?

Kinsey’s headline finding was that “at least 37% of the male population has some homosexual experience between the beginning of adolescence and old age”, meaning physical contact to the point of orgasm. He claimed that 13% of males were predominately homosexual for at least three years between the ages of 16 and 55 (scoring at least 4) and that 4% of males were exclusively homosexual all their lives (scoring 6). For 30-year-old US men, he estimated that 83% would score 0 (totally heterosexual), 8% would be 1 or 2 on the scale, and 9% would be at least a 3. He acknowledged that people could move on the scale during their lifetime, and indeed Kinsey himself is said to have moved from a 1 or 2 when younger to a 3 or 4 in middle age.

25% of the total population will never be the majority ... well not in this dimension.

They are not technically a majority in their own right, however Christians of all denominations most certainly ARE a majority as the census supports.

Correct, John.

To directly quote: "Clearly, the majority of Australians subscribe to the Roman Catholic religion."

That's clearly wrong.
