The Jewish number seems interesting. There are roughly 7.5 Million Jews in the US. If you take the statistic that 44% of protestants are considered "churchgoers", and you assume there are 140 Million Protestants in the US, you come up with a number of around 61.6 Million Protestant Churchgoers. 41% of that number have a Jewish friend, 25.3 Million Protestant Churchgoers have a friend who is Jewish, out of a population of 7.5 Million Jews. The numbers don't seem to line up. If ever Jewish person had a Protestant friend, than about 3-4 Protestant Churchgoers who have a Jewish friend have the same friend.
