Are you talking worldwide, or some specific country? When you consider that (Pentecostal) Protestantism is sold throughout Latin America as the progressive, modern, Norte-Americano thing, and that Evangelicalism worldwide goes for the hard sell in making church attendance into an entertainment experience, complete with rock bands, entertaining sermons, etc. ... those are impressively good statistics -- for us.

And Antoninus is right -- don't count on keeping all of them. Francis Beckwith, Jesse Romero, Jeff Cavins -- and those are only the reverts I know of because they've written books and do apologetics.
