Broad idea, please do an episode on Jehovah's Witnesses. We publish realy detailed population statistics, we're extremely evangelistic, we exist everywhere, around the world, continually grow through evangelism, not birth rate, I really struggle to find stats about us not published BY us, since we're pretty small, around 9 million, or 22 million by worldly standards. If you don't know a lot about us, we would probably be a useful data point, at any rate, I would love to learn more about our demographics in a way you are well equiped to do.
Thank you.

@tann_man The end of serfdom was not morivated by Christianity, but the end of slavery, based on the horrors of the trans Atlantic slave trade, were motivated by Protestantism. Religious toleration was an accident, and plenty of Atheists have tried to enforce Atheism through violence, and still do to this day, say, in Xinxiang, universal literacy existed in ancient Israel which was a hyper religious theocracy, and modern literacy was again, largely a product of Protestantism. The abolition of serfdom was really an economic inevitability, as technology changed, economic systems needed to do so also.

Video games are one form of media, theoretically a book, a movie, an oral recitation, a video game or anything else COULD convey a worthwhile moral or educational message, even while being entertaining, but you're right that much in the way of video games are either vapid or immoral. The issue is the content, but then again, as the Jesuit said, the media is the message. There are moral and immoral books, but video games will encourage a different kind of content than books.
