and would be told that they still are in a vast minority, and asked why "their god" has chosen to have a minority of the world believe in him (her, it)....maybe some religions would be exempt, if they have adequate historical evidence that theirs is the "true" god (such as being consistently persecuted
for a few thousand years).
