If you consider all of Christianity one religion, then they just edge out the Muslims. However, the vast differences in belief between Anglicans, Orthodox, Protestants, Roman Catholics, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Mormons really should be considered different religions. These numbers are from 2005. I read an article recently which showed that Islam had surpassed Catholicism as the world's most populous religion. If someone could find that article that would be great.

But it doesn't really matter to me. it IS either Roman Catholicism or Islam. And it's ALL beside the point: The point was that being popular does not make you right. And that's kind of a fact, end of story.
You say Muslims, I say Christians, seems fair enough to me, and means that you are wrong.
