There is also the question of "re
sponse error," that is, inaccuracy of
replies. Scientific studies of the va
lidity of mail questionnaires have
shown them to be notoriously un
trustworthy even in reporting sim
ple objective facts such as age,
reading habits, home circumstanc
es. When the questionnaire con
cerns emotionally-charged material,
the response error is naturally
larger. It seems not unfair to sup
pose that some of the ministers
were a bit optimistic in estimating
the number of their "converts"
over a 10-year period. Memories of
what happened a few years ago can
be quite fallacious.

An interesting sidelight is the
Christian Herald's statement that
"mixed marriage" was the "chief
reason for conversion to Protest
antism." Priest?, know that the
"mixed" marriages that lead to the
loss of membership in the Church
are, typically, invalid marriages. A
Catholic girl falls in love with a
divorced Protestant man. A priest
studies the case and tells her he
cannot marry her to a man already
validly married. Under the influ
ence of emotion she goes to a Prot
estant minister and consents to
have him perform the ceremony,
thus losing her membership in the
Church.
A survey has shown that,
