2. The Mormons and JW are a whole different bowl of beans. They employ cultic practices of brain washing, will turn against you if you leave the religion, and are very works oriented. So although they are committed it is not the same as a true Christians commitment because they want Jesus as their Lord.

3. Catholics have a very small percentage of committed followers. While there a numerous Catholics and who proclaim Catholicism most do not attend Mass regularly, give to the church, or offer any real support of their belief. They only identify themselves as such.
This is hirlarious! Baptists for the most part believe in baptism by immersion not that they are two steppers. LOL! They are 1 to no-steppers. Baptism for the vast majority is not essential to be saved. To say "baptists are committed is interesting as well as they have the worst consistent attendance numbers per those who are "saved". This per a report I saw several years back. Sounds like a bunch of personal opinion that is unfounded but simply who you have dealt with which is always skewed. To me forthe most part everyone deals with the same exact people. FLesh is flesh and the mentality of doctrine plays a huge whole in how one believes he has a relationship with God etc...

Also.... salvation is works oriented which is based upon a working relationship with God. He leads you follow to do otherwise is damnation!
