Default Top Ten Organized Religions of the World
Statistics of the world's religions are only very rough approximations. Aside from Christianity, few religions, if any, attempt to keep statistical records; and even Protestants and Catholics employ different methods of counting members.

Religion _____ Members _______ Percentage

Christianity ____ 2.1 billion ________ 33.0%
Islam ______1.3 billion __________20.1
Hinduism _______ 851 million _______ 13.3
Buddhism ______ 375 million _______ 5.9
Sikhism _______ 25 million _________ 0.4
Judaism _______ 15 million ________ 0.2%
Baha'ism _______ 7.5 million _______ 0.1
Confucianism ____ 6.4 million _______ 0.1
Jainism _________ 4.5 million _______ 0.1
Shintoism _______ 2.8 million _______ 0.0
