I just read that the guys over at the cumorah project think that the dead people on the membership list (those from the "in transit file" that the church keeps on the books until they're 110 years old while in reality they kick the bucket at 70-75) should be subtracted from the total membership number BEFORE applying activity rates.
That means even fewer active members than I thought. I made this calculation (I won't bore you with the details):
Dead: 1.9 million (13%)
Lost: 5.4 million (37%)
Inactive: 3.0 million (21%)
Active: 4.1 million (29%)
=============================
Total: 14.4 million (100%)
Thanks be unto the Hinckster for building so many temples with them pretty lights, so the Mormons can maintain they are growing while in reality they are a pathetic little marginal cult.
