| Apr 26 at 0:12 | comment | added | Ren Eh Daycart | @KeithMcClary Can I quote a fragment of one sentence? "Because the total population is fixed and membership growth involves addressing people who are increasingly more difficult to convert [...]" Converting people to a religion isn't like mining a particular metal. Accessible raw ore deposits that can be used to extract a given metal might become depleted deposits, but the ubiquity of iron doesn't influence gold to convert to iron. Obscure religions attract fewer converts than popular religions. Also, a religion doesn't remain completely unchanged when passed from parents to children. | |
