| == Inaccurate Population Figures in Opening Section == | |||
| So, I was looking at the opening section of the page and noticed this portion at the end: | |||
| "In 2010, the Philippine census by the National Statistics Office found that '''0.0025 percent of the population''' in the Philippines are affiliated with the Iglesia ni Cristo, making it '''the smallest religion by number of adherents in the Philippines,''' Roman Catholicism (87.1%) and Islam (1.6%)." | |||
| Take note of the bolded portions. These parts have several things wrong with them, which I will enumerate: | |||
| 1. The first source, which uses the 2010 national census, indicates an adherent population of 2,251,941. Now, if we are to accept the claim that the adherents only represent 0.0025 of the population, it would have to mean that the Philippine Republic, as a whole, has a population of 900,776,400. This is clearly not the case, seeing as the very same source indicates a total population of merely 92,097,978. | |||
| 2. The second source, which uses the CIA World Factbook, has the population of adherents at around 2.3%, which is three orders of magnitude larger than the quoted portion of the wiki entry above. | |||
| 3. The adherents are clearly not the smallest religion in the Philippines. The ] has an adherent population of around 10,000 or so according to their wiki entry. Even the ] only reported 728,295 adherents in the Philippine Republic. | |||
| As it stands, the adherents' population is actually the third or fourth largest, depending on if you count all Evangelicals in the country as a single, unified, religious body. | |||
| Also, while we're on the subject, Roman Catholicism is actually 80.58% or 80.9% based on the first and second source, respectively. Meanwhile, Islam is either 5.57% or 5%, which is several percentages larger than what the quoted portion claims. | |||

| Apparently, part of the Infobox was also altered. I recall it being "Undisclosed; Potentially 2.5 Million" or something to that effect. As of this moment, it says "Not disclosed; over 2.5k". | |||

INC International
An IP in the Philippines has called the INC "international". As its members are mostly of Philipino origin, I am not sure that this is true.
Depends on how one defines what an "international" religion is. It certainly operates a large number of churches in the United States, among other countries. The fact many of the pioneering members are Filipino immigrants doesn't really say much beyond how it initially propagated. It doesn't help that the places where it's most established, eg. Hawaii, California, have a high number of ethnic Filipinos to begin with due to over a century of historical migration. And then we have to factor in all the Filipinos who didn't convert until after they migrated to said locations. Of course, even taking into account all of these factors, there still remains a large number of non-Filipinos who are converting, case in point the Hispanics in the US and the Native Africans in both South Africa and Lesotho, among other places.
And it's Filipino, not Philipino. 2601:601:9600:1CF0:1581:13E5:8601:663B (talk) 22:07, 22 May 2018 (UTC)
