James,
That is an interesting theory but I believe you have to cast your net
a bit wider to get at the truth. Or at least the writers that I have been
reading seem to believe so.
If you look in the latest, or next to latest, Atlantic Monthly you
will find a long article there about world Christianity. According to the
writer all the time you & I have been watching the Northern Hemisphere it is
the Southern Hemisphere that is growing in importance. As I understand the
writer the Southern Hemisphere will in a few decades totally dominate world
Christianity.
As I am an Anglican myself I can tell you that the Southern Church
already has been influencing the American Anglican (Episcopalian) Church.
When I read the Atlantic Monthly article I see enough other evidence
to believe the writer is on the right track although I personally would
differ with him in detail.
