And I'm a guy who doesn't really like Protestants but realize that the only data analysis tools available to me is some truisms of statistical inference; namely, the demographics, after accounting for double-counting and triple-counting of categories such as "Protestant and Broncos fan", will likely not be too different from the national percentage of nominal Protestants(around 51%), but that category does not distinguished between the "lapsed" and "non-lapsed" folks within the category. Still, even though this is what I think the demographics would look like, this is speculation and real data analysis is impossible because I can't find what exactly are the actual numbers of the jersey sales are, just their ranking and that 30% of the buyers were Floridians.
