And of all these religions where I see parking lots filled every Sunday, how many people are just sitting on the chairs instead of stadning on the promises?

My guess for the largest 4 would be:
1. Catholic
2. LDS
3. Baptist
4. Methodist

I believe Christ said "Let He who is without sin cast the first stone." How do you know what people in these churches are doing once they leave? Don't make such generalizations.

1. Cowboys
2. Cowboys pre-game tailgating
3. People wishing they could change religions to either #1 or #2 but their mommies would not approve.

You can go to www.thearda.com and get a report for Collin County. Generally, over half of congregants are Protestant, followed by Catholics at about 20%. If you split up the Protestant category, the overall breakdown looks something like:
1. Catholic
2. Baptist
3. Non-denominational
4. Methodist
5. Lutheran
Past that, other congregations have fewer than 10,000 members in Collin County.

With that data point, I believe the answer to the question, "What's the most dominant religion?" would be "Christian."
