Media campaign
Dennis Vogel:
However, if one of the Christian sects gains power, it could be us.
Christianity - 2.42 billion
Catholic Church - 1.285 billion.
Protestantism - 920 million.
Eastern Orthodox Church - 270 million.
Oriental Orthodoxy – 86 million.
Restorationism and Nontrinitarianism - 35 million.
Independent Catholicism - 18 million.
Minor branches - 1 million.
But why would 1.8 billion Muslims, 1.35 billion Chinese, etc. care what Christian sect any one person belongs to? The type of Christian means almost nothing to them.

Thanks for the stats Dennis.

How would that fit into God's plan for the fall and destruction of Babylon The Great I wonder.
Revelation 18
Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence the great city Babylon shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore.
22 The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore, and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore
23 The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth.”

It seems religion is becoming more of a topic in the news.

“It's just amazing how in today's world, a site such as ours can become the center of attention almost overnight.
All it takes is that right message that is followed up on by a few million u-tube viewers who get the proverbial snowball rolling down the hill getting larger and larger with every revolution. Maybe it will come about through our debunking of the Christian Hell doctrine, or the tithing doctrine, or maybe just the way I might comment on some national event of international interest. I look forward to that day. When the Christian Church begins an unrestrained media campaign against us, then the "chosen of God" will become strong in the faith as never before.”
I don’t want to speculate as to what made Ray try his hand at ‘future telling’ in saying something so specific as, ‘when the Christian Church begins an unrestrained media campaign against us’... as if he knew specifics about future events. Hmm.

Curious to see how that plays out.
I was thinking how birth rates might influence these numbers you posted, and found this.
n an analysis released Wednesday, Pew estimates that in the five-year period between 2030 and 2035, the Muslim birth rate will overtake the birth rate among Christians, with 225 million babies born to Muslim families in those years, compared to 224 million among Christians.
