The El Paso Times reported on an interesting outcome at Southern Methodist Seminary in Texas. It seems that Catholic students now outnumber Methodist students by about 200 students. The bumper crop of Catholic students comprise about 25% of the student population, which coincidentally is just slightly more than Catholic-sponsored University of Dallas, which has a 19% non-Catholic population. Catholics make up 81% of the student body at UD. Methodists make up about 25% of the 11,000 student body at SMU.
Personally, I would have thought this story would have been picked up and reported on across the Christian blogoshere, perhaps on a Methodist blog. Since it hasn't and we follow religious
demographics, its here.
