Well, while I am well aware of all of the problems with the problems of saying that "Well, more people agree with me than with you, so I must be right", I do want to add that 1) more people on earth claim Christianity than claim any other one set of beliefs (or lack thereof) -- it might not be a majority, but it's a plurality -- and 2) Christianity is the world's fastest growing religion. (Both facts taken from Atlantic Monthly. If anyone really wants, I can look up the article and month.)
