Moderator
editThe text reads: At the time Macdonald took up the office of Moderator, the total population of the Church had fallen steadily from 5.21 million in 1971 to 5.11 million in 2002.[4] As the new Moderator, Macdonald saw the primary task for the Church of Scotland as becoming more appealing to a younger audience to turn this tide of more than 30 years of falling congregations.[4]
The Church 'population' in 2002 was already below one million. 5.11 million in 2002 and 5.21 million in 1971 were the total populations of the country of Scotland, not the Church of Scotland. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.42.26.195 (talk) 12:06, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
