@CrypticMirror Where does this article say it was fraudulently manipulated by evangelical Christians? YouGov carried out the research, they're a reputable secular polling company. People paid by YouGov to fill in the survey misrepresented themselves. Unless you've got evidence those people were somehow selected or manipulated by evangelicals, you should correct your claim.

@jdonoghue @CrypticMirror the evangelical Christians were happy to go along with the idea that attendances were dramatically up even though they must have known that they were actually declining. That sounds pretty deceptive.

@jdonoghue @CrypticMirror it looks like the survey was flawed by people completing it for money by just ticking random answers rather then deliberately pretending to be attending church

@satsuma @CrypticMirror The Christians questioned the results because they thought they looked unlikely, YouGov repeatedly insisted they were accurate. Understandably, the Christians got quite excited about that. Very awkward and deflating for them to find out they were misled.
