in deeply Catholic Latin America, where the number of Catholics has been sharply declining. Evangelical Christians, on the other hand, are multiplying there like the loaves and fishes in Canaan.
It seems the worse your condition, the more fantastic salvation you'll cling to.

Benedict's Legacy
Der Spiegel considers it:
When he was newly elected, the German media spoke of a "Benedict effect," of how having a German pope would positively influence conversion and retention rates in Germany. But, if it ever really existed, this effect quickly dissipated. Since Benedict's election in 2005, the number of people leaving the Catholic Church in Germany has more than doubled, and it's been the highest most recently in Ratzinger's former Archdiocese of Munich and Freising. Only 30 percent of Germans are still Catholic today.
The claim, often made by enthusiastic Catholics on German talk shows -- that all of this is a German or European problem and nothing but sour grapes, and that the Church is more successful elsewhere -- isn't even true in deeply Catholic Latin America, where the number of Catholics has been sharply declining. Evangelical Christians, on the other hand, are multiplying there like the loaves and fishes in Canaan.

FromEpiphenom on why the Religious are NOT more charitable than the non-religious once you control for in Religion charity
Religious people give to religious charities
Posted: 23 Jun 2012 01:53 PM PDT
The link between religion and charity is a fascinating one - not least because the assumption that the religious not only give more to charity but are more 'generous' as a result really does beg the question. Even if they report giving more to charity, which charities are they giving to, and why?
