Well, having an hur on a train this evening I thought I'd check the figures for myself. Today the whole population seems to be shrinking in a frightening and mysterious way:
Population (18,623,700) 15,514,660
Singles (4,123,460) 3,118,260
Relationship (3,722,720) 3,283,520
Engaged (873,780) 852,520
Married (3,228,320) 3,097,020
Men (8,442,940) 7,264,480
into women (3,566,820) 3,060,120
into men (106,400) 95,160
Women (8,442,940) 7,264,480
into men (3,566,820) 3,060,120
into women (106,400) 95,160
Get the idea? Something has happened to over 3 million, who are no longer among us. Even more disturbingly, only 6,834,220 claim to speak UK English. Even more unexpectedly, with only 4,620 Roman Catholics, 38,940 claim to be “Monks.”
Shome Mishtake?

I adjusted the 'age' field to be 'any-any' rather than '18-any'. Might this explain some of the raptured souls? (Spellchecker wants to say 'ruptured souls', but I'm having none of it.)
I find it worrying that according to your research the number of men and number of women in facebook is the same.
Sounds like 'Father' John Nelson Darby has been prolific since his dear departure: thrice as many now-departed pre-trib', pre-mill', Dispensationalist sectarians than regular Anglican worshippers in the UK.
Only 1.3% on Facebook admit to a same-sex interest ?! That's a bit short of the national estimate of 6% from surveys done by the Government...Anyone would think people don't always tell the truth on there :-)
ha ha ha I love it! more monks than there are Catholics hmmmm . . . . very interesting.
Well, there are some Anglican and Orthodox monks of course. Probably not 34,000 of them though.
