Just finished putting this together and wanted to share to see what people thought. I know there is usually a lot of discussion about what the church growth really is like, well, here it is according to the official numbers as reported in conference. There are some interesting trends here, especially of note is the consistent decrease in (estimated) active members over the last 40 years, the lack of increase (as would be projected or anticipated) in any of their growth numbers (births and converts haven't changed significantly in a long time), etc.
