Pentecostal influence growing in Brazil- Brazil becomes secular

[Luc 4,776]

I doubt that. Did you see the growing rate of some faithes? Look at Asia, look at Eastern Europe, look at South America, look at Africa. Everywhere is pentecostalism growing. Even in Germany is that the fastest growing faith

ex-communist countries are gaining believers because they weren't allowed to be religious. poor nations because of high birth rates. I don't even know what pentecostalism is. religion in its entirety is declining, and will decline at even bigger rates in the future due to better welfare, education and even more advanced science. It also depends on your source whether the information is reputable or not. not enough research is done on social demographics of religion.
