Out of Chicago, Leah gives us New York City, somebody who's going to be very unpopular.

And the one statistic that really struck me in this is that 13% of Americans are former Catholics.

I mean, most Americans never were Catholics in the first place.

I mean, that's an awful lot of former Catholics.

And then, of course, they never ever talk about the difference between people who are practicing Catholics and people aren't.

They're just anybody who'll say, well, what are you?

Well, I don't know.

I'm a Catholic, you know, so they count them.

this poll is a combination of a poll from 23 and 24, and then a recent poll they added into it.

And so, you know, there may be some distinction, may be some new things happening right now.

Things are a lot more different this year than they were last year.

And so, you know, and people are discussing, there's one story after another, which we've been discussing that shows that there's this young people are growing and the churches are getting bigger and we keep racking our brains.

Well, what's going to happen to them when they

they join those churches because everybody else is joining those churches.

And these are the hard results that, you know, the major results, you know, people, people become Protestants all the time, but they don't go back and become Catholics.

You know, they, other religions, Hindus and Muslims and Jews, they hold onto their religion, but the Catholics are the only ones that are dropping and collapsing because there's so much under the gun.

Nobody, nobody becomes a religion to follow a political, a political stunt.

which is what they have a political study and when that's so you know not human that's so again unnatural as men who are like you know like the guy that's going to take over new york so i'm not saying that the new growth that we've been that we've been writing about isn't true but in the register piece that i referred to in that in that daily update

which happens at the end of the day here.

You're over on the other side of the pond.
