Catholic Population

The Vatican’s annual headcount shows 1.214 billion Catholics worldwide.

Vatican statistics released today show that the number of Asian and African Catholics is continuing its upward trajectory, while the Church in Europe is still shrinking.

The number of religious excluding priests has risen 18.5 percent in Africa and a whopping 44.9 percent in Asia in just 10 years, according to the 2013 Pontifical Yearbook.

The Yearbook, which was published May 13 and contains data from 2011, revealed Catholics still make up less than 18 percent of the world’s population, but the Church is growing the fastest in Africa and Asia.

And although it shows “a strong downward trend was observed in data for the professed religious women with a decrease of 10 percent from 2001 to 2011,” there has also been “a sustained increase” with over 28 percent in Africa and 18 percent in Asia.

The Yearbook states that although the number of Catholics in the world increased by just 1.5 percent from 2010 to 2011, it increased by 4.3 percent in Africa and 2 percent in Asia.

The total number of Catholics that were baptized in 2011 had the highest representation in the Americas at 48.8 percent, followed by Europe with 23.5 percent, Africa was at 16 percent, Asia had 10.9 percent and Oceania came in at just under one percent.

“The dynamics of the number of priests in Africa and Asia is somewhat comforting,” says the document.

It reports that there were over 3,000 new priests in the two continents in 2011 and that in 10 years the numbers increased by 39.5 percent in Africa and 32 percent in Asia.

“America remains stationary around an average of 122,000 priests and Europe, in contrast to the global average, has seen a decrease of 9 percent in the past decade,” the Yearbook says.

Another surprising fact is that the number of permanent deacons has also boomed, especially in Europe and the United States, increasing by over 40 percent in the last 10 years.

The Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone and the Substitute for General Affairs Archbishop Angelo Becciu presented the Yearbook on May 13 to Pope Francis.

It was edited by several people, including Monsignor Vittorio Formenti, head of the Central Bureau of Statistics of the Church, and Enrico Nenna, the chief statistician in the Vatican’s Central Office for Church Statistics.

The number of Catholics worldwide has remained steady at 1.214 billion for the year 2011.

The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective. Unless a man starts on the strange assumption that he has never existed before, it is quite certain that he will never exist afterwards. Unless a man be born again, he shall by no means enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

- GK Chesterton

With blessings, prayers and best wishes. Happy New Year!

Christianity Isn’t Dying

Those with only a loose religious affiliation are finally admitting they don’t really have one at all.

FCA:

Story Highlights

• Many in the USA who identify as Christian do so only superficially.
• The recent growth in “nones,” comes primarily from cultural and churchgoing Christians shifting.
• The future of Christianity in America is not extinction but clarification.

6:34PM EDT October 18. 2012 – You’ve heard it suggested that the United States is simply Europe on a 50-year delay. Most churches will be museums before your grandchildren reach adulthood.

Though new numbers from Pew Research released this month point to a decline in American Protestants, no serious scholar believes that Christianity in America is on a trajectory of extinction. And, as a researcher and practicing evangelical Christian, I say to those who’ve read recent reports and come to that conclusion, “Not so fast.”

You see, many in the USA who identify as Christian do so only superficially. These “cultural Christians” use the term “Christian” but do not practice the faith.

Now it seems that many of them are even giving up the label, and those cultural Christians are becoming “nones” (people with no religious label).

Cultural Christians

In our research, we see three broad ways people identify as Christian.

“Cultural Christians” mark “Christian” on a survey rather than another world religion because they know they are not Hindu, Jewish, etc., or because their family always has. “Churchgoing Christians” identify as such because they occasionally attend worship services.

On the other hand, “conversion Christians” claim to have had a faith experience in which they were transformed, resulting in a deeply held belief.

The recent growth in “nones,” I believe, comes primarily from cultural and churchgoing Christians shifting to the category no longer using a religious identification. This shift should cause us to consider three ramifications:

First, Christians continue to lose what some have called a home-field advantage. Christianity is no longer the first choice of many seeking spiritual meaning, and identifying as Christian is not necessary to be an accepted part of society.

Second, the squishy middle is collapsing. It makes less sense to be a cultural Christian today. Better to be spiritual than religious, unless your religion matters to you, as it does to devout Roman Catholics, Protestants and many others.

Vibrant believers

Third, Christianity is not collapsing, but it is being clarified.

If you cut through the recent hype, and look to studies such as the General Social Survey, you’ll find that the United States is filled with vibrant believers.

The survey shows that the evangelical movement has remained generally steady from 1972 to 2010 (and, contrary to what you might have heard, the data include young adults), that church attendance has declined among mainline Protestants, and that the “nones” have increased.

But no collapse.

Other examples of resiliency abound.

Each year, Gallup asks Americans whether they consider themselves a born-again or evangelical Christian. Since 1992, the percentage has fluctuated from a low of 36% in 1992 to a high of 47% in 1998.

The 2011 yearly aggregate is 42%, very similar to the percentages over the past eight years.

Christianity has hardly been replaced by the “nones.”

Spritual, not religious

So, if not extinction, what does the future look like? I don’t think it looks like Europe, shaped by historic religious wars and legally mandated religion. Instead, if trends continue, I believe that the future will look more like the present-day Pacific Northwest. There, we find a majority of the population is spiritual but not religious, yet vibrant churches and devout Christians abound.

For example, in the Foursquare Church (a mid-size Pentecostal denomination), the Northwest District oversees 150 churches. Fifteen years ago, 66 of those churches did not exist. Those 66 churches alone report 40,000 new believers. Similar examples of such vibrant growth, there and elsewhere, demonstrate the point.

The future of Christianity in America is not extinction but clarification that a devout faith is what will last. Christianity in America isn’t dying, cultural Christianity is.

 

Australia: Calls for New Approach to Curb Big Rise in HIV Cases

Contact Online:

New approaches? Would that include a moral dirmention perhaps? Of course not! That would be against the dangerous spirit of the age and the disastrous PC.

The most recent increase in the number of new HIV cases diagnosed – from 1051 new cases in 2010 to 1137 in 2011 – has been driven by increases among gay men.

Amy Corderoy in The Age
October 17, 2012

HIV rates have increased substantially for the first time in five years, leading experts to warn urgent action is needed to stop the virus’ spread.

Figures to be released today show the number of HIV diagnoses increased by 8 per cent in 2011, and have increased by 50 per cent over the past 10 years.

David Wilson, the head of the Kirby Institute’s Surveillance and Evaluation Program for Public Health at the University of New South Wales, said NSW, Victoria and the ACT have driven the increase.

“In these three states we have seen quite a significant rise in the last calendar year,” he said.

Victoria experienced the biggest increase but in New South Wales more people were diagnosed with HIV they had only recently caught, as opposed to being diagnosed only after the condition had progressed.

Associate Professor Wilson said it was unusual for infectious diseases such as HIV to increase after they had been controlled, but the lowest levels of HIV diagnosis in Australia were 10 years ago.

“We thought we had at least reached a plateau about five years ago, but we have not,” he said.

About 24,000 to 25,000 Australians are living with diagnosed HIV but up to 10,000 people could have HIV that has never been diagnosed, he said.

The most recent increase in the number of new HIV cases diagnosed – from 1051 new cases in 2010 to 1137 in 2011 – has been driven by increases among gay men.

Victoria’s acting chief health officer Michael Ackland said 150 new diagnoses were reported in the year to July.

Experts attending the Australasian HIV/AIDS Conference today will launch a plan, called The Melbourne Declaration, to try to stop the spread of the disease – including calls to remove restrictions on funding HIV medications for people in the early stages of the disease and fast-track the approval of antiretroviral drugs for prevention of HIV in people exposed to it

 

Toilet Technology – Two Thirds Take Gadgets to the Bathroom

Two thirds of bathroom-breaks are now being accompanied by technology, research has revealed. A study of 2,000 adults has revealed that over a third will bring their phone with them to the toilet, playing games, texting friends or pinging e-mails to co-workers.

In fact, a surprising one in eight of all those surveyed will regularly have a tablet to hand when using the restroom- probably how 10% keep up with sports (watching or listening live) and 4% regularly watch films each time they grace the porcelain throne…

Anglican Church of Canada Demographics

Anglican Samizdat with some scary stats:

The Anglican Journal conducted a survey to find out who is reading the paper. The age of those who read the Journal and who are, therefore, interested in the Anglican Church of Canada’s version of Christianity is revealing. You can view all the results here. These are the age groupings:

Let’s make the not unreasonable assumption that the age demographics of those who read the Journal are an accurate reflection of the age of church attendees. If we do, it means that unless things change and the church manages to attract younger people, in around 20 years, there will be 42% fewer Anglicans, in 30 years 72% fewer and in 40 years 94% fewer. That’s assuming the 6% currently between ages 18 to 49 don’t leave in the meantime.

The average Sunday attendance in the Anglican Church of Canada is around 320,000. If the above figures are any indication, in 40 years the average attendance will be 19,200.

The C of E I imagine would look rather similar?
