Put the following Religions in descending order from the most popular.  Then check the link and see if you did it right.

Just guessing, from most to least:

Christianity
Islam
Atheism
Hinduism
Judaism
Buddhist
Chinese Traditional
Indigenous

I'm tired, so it's probably half-wrong, but I'm fairly sure of the top half.

Where's the "Which religion have caused most death to prove that their religion is better than others" statistic?

I actually think I know the answer on that one!

I wasn't going to write them all down, but I only got the first three correct.  During research from previous discussions I had already found that Christians were the largest and Islam was second.

there 500 000 (OMG) scientologists according to that article

And nice picture also, world map collored according to religion.
And I think that there are more people that consider them selves budhists. It seems to be a popular trend lately. "Oh I meditate", "I like to lit candels", "I like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and Last Samurai" etc

Wow. I was surprised the Judaism was only 0.22%. I've often heard people say things like "All the world's major religions: you know Christianity, Islam, Judaism ...." I guess it seems like it's more popular because of all the press about it. The only thing I ever hear about Hinduism is from movies or the Simpsons. lol

It's popular because it's the foundation of Christianism and Islam.

Good point. And I guess there were many more pre-WWII. (I hope no one is offended by that statement, but there was a rather significant reduction in the number of Jews...)

How do they accumulate those stats? I guess it would be from country census's .I would have thought the "Not Religous" bit would have been higher... but then again I am only basing that off the people that I know, none of which are religous (but maybe they would claim to be under a census?)

Well, to be honest I thought the same, the "Not Religious" should have been higher according to my friends and people I know, but this seems to be from surveys and census, so it should be accurate, but who knows.

Probably all of the Abrahamic Religions (Christianity, Islam and Judaism)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrahamic_religions

The Dharmic ones tend to be based on a more peaceful/tolerant way of life.

Although i'm not 100% sure.
