Does anyone happen to have a link to any studies about the Catholic church's retention rate? Or ANY church's retention rate? Preferably in regards to confirmation?
Y'know, out of curiosity?

Re: I wish we had the religious version of Terrorist right now
Rentention rate refers to the time period in which the basic knowledge of a faith can be retained. Confirmation would be just another notch in that time period. As for my personal experience: I have retained about 75% of my knowledge since confirmation.Lil' Bean is here!Comment

Oh, well I havn't really ever thought of figuring that out. I don't think I have lost anything yet. But I still have time to go I guess. If anything I am still learning. I was confirmed two or three years ago.I was like a Cloud once!!!!Comment

I don't remember ever really learning anything about Catholocism so I guess my rention of it would be pretty high.The Cyclops having only one eye, needed to seek shelter from the harsh sun. The shadow cast by the spheres gave him temporary respite.

I doubt any church could keep reliable records of that.Comment

Retention rate.
The ratio of people who JOIN the church to those who LEAVE the church.
I read that once Catholics get confirmed, many typically stop going to church; it's the last necessary sacrement of initiation, so they don't see a point in continuing to attend mass.
I was curious to see if there were actual STUDIES on this phenomenon. Looks like I'll need a new thesis.Last edited by Kefka Jr.; 10-19-2005, 12:03 AM.Comment

God, Christmas mass at my Church sucks: it's the only time that many people go to Church so I usually get stuck standing in the back nearly suffocating to death for an hour.Lil' Bean is here!Comment
