Others like Oriental Orthodox. I always thought that Anglicans were counted with Protestants, but I could be wrong on that.
I don't recall asking that. In one post I did ask which was correct, but I didn't say which is true because I don't believe either is true. They are, in my opinion, allegories. If I used the term true please show me exactly where, becasue it was used in error.You asked which of the two accounts was true. That indicates that you thought one was not true.
In the space provided, please list all the passages in the Bible that agree with evolution. _ Write legibly.Well, this Christian believes in evolution but will certainly not be going to the grave without hope.

I still see a 400 million discrepancy, even with double-counts...Anglicans are Protestant...FYI. Now back to the topic?Thats not accurate. There are 800 million Protestants and 1.2 Billion Catholics. That doesn't count Eastern Orthodox, Anglicans and others. Protestants are not far behind Catholics in numbers. Add others to Protestants and you might even be outnumbered
Yes there is. Chapter 1 animals then man, chapter 2 Adam then animals then Eve.There is no difference in the order.
Are you saying that one cannot be a Christian and believe in evolution?In the space provided, please list all the passages in the Bible that agree with evolution. _ Write legibly.

Not true.Yet chapter 1 said that animals were created before man, chapter 2 say animals were created after amn.
I'm asking for you to present Scriptural support for your position.Are you saying that one cannot be a Christian and believe in evolution?
Chapter 2 does not contradict anything in chapter 1. It gives greater detail into why man was created, but the only creation in chapter 2 was Eve.Yes there is. Chapter 1 animals then man, chapter 2 Adam then animals then Eve.
No error here...most Christians are Catholic. 400 million Protestants includes Anglicans! And possibly Orthodox...not sure about Orthodox, though.OK add Anglicans and that's another 85 million on our side, not counting others not mentioned. Yes lets get back on topic, your errors are off topic.

Probably nothing. Anglicans are Protestants, by the same Pew Survey:That's 800 million, plus Anglicans and others. Its probably over a billion.
I think i know some key ideas. Its because it undermines the creation story and that people will become irreligious?
Well wouldnt that be an issue about the idea of the earth is flat if the bible is literal on that part i mean?
What i mean is that science explains our physicial world. The main point i am making is that Creation Story had two interpretations in medieval ages. Allegory" basically a deeper meaning than it is. Or "Literally" like just like it is written.
So basically allegory seems to be the key point then. Since that can be used. Since God is outside our understanding. Science is a method just to understand the world we live in more or less.
So i dont see the problem with evolution, because it doesnt undermine the scripture in the sense of it not being true?
Although i do believe its a shame that more people who lack understanding go away because of ignorance and just dont bother trying to understand why Christianity is a religion to help your life.
But i am curious to what you think?

If your not Catholic, then, you're a denomination unto yourself. And Protestant.Who knows. Im not into denominations anyway.
It's actually about 1.27 Billion Catholics. Even so, we are most Christians, unless you lump everyone else together. So then, Catholics vs youse guys maybe you're right, but we're still 50%. That's what half is, after all.Either way, your original assertion was in error.
Here are the numbers:
The Catholic Church has 1.1 billion adherents worldwide, representing half of the global Christian population.
The world’s 801 million Protestants, as broadly defined in this report (see Defining Christian Traditions), make up 37% of the global Christian population.
There are about 260 million Orthodox Christians, making up 12% of the global Christian population.
There are about 28 million Christians in the world who do not belong to the three largest Christian traditions. Those belonging to other Christian groups make up slightly more than 1% of the global Christian population.
