Which is growing faster atheism or Islam
I question the question. That is way too simple of a question to poise in a forum. @snytiger6 gave the answer with one click.
Why does Islam worry you? More than Christianity?
It doesn't.
There is no answer to this kind of questioning! Define first what you consider a 'Muslim'! Note that the Quran does that(in a contradicting manner)! Note that many Muslim groups slaughter each other on bases of "The other wasn't a 'Real' Muslim!" No study and no stats can ever give you an answer, not even close!
I assume, those who profess no belief are increasing. We have no way, yet, of knowing how any reports reflect the general population's real thoughts.
We have no data from most of the planet as to those who have not be slaughtered by believers.
Especially islam believers. , , Islam: Spread by the sword for 1400 years. That is a clear evil to intelligent humanity.
I sorta think that the percentage of non-believers have been consistent for all human existence.
As the same for all "sub groups,' such as homosexuals, psychopaths, narcissists, charlatans, good people, believers,... The same percentages for all time.
But now, we are able to find others who tell us we are not alone. Whatever our fear.
Atheism....that is why it is promoted that Islam other religions actually have new idiots join them
no idea...if I was interested enough I might google-it...
Atheism is growing faster in free countries thanks to the Internet. Of the non-free countries, the Muslim ones are growing faster than the atheist ones (like China).
China is not atheist. It is a geograhic region controlled by a gang who refer to themselves as gods. The in-controll fascists constantly declare their right to rule via the ancient emperors. Just like N Korea, japan, russia,... and nearly all muslim controlled regions. Fascists, all.
@Jacar The government is officially atheist and suppresses many religious groups (similar to the former USSR and N Korea). The social system and schooling encourage a high percentage of people there to profess atheism. See [en.wikipedia.org]
Islam is supposed to be about 1.2 to 1.5 billion!!!
Christianity supposedly up to 1.5 billion
Other religions such as Hindi, Sikh, and Buddhism all number close to a billion followers each or more!!!
Since atheists are never actually counted it could reach upwards of 1.5 billion or more!!!
Of course all of this is subjective at best!!!
After all there are around 7.8 billion individuals on this planet as of this date!!!
Because of the high birthrate of Muslims...probably Islam, but that’s pure guesswork without any data to go on.
Not just the high birthrates but the inability to leave. Often one is stuck with what they are born into.
Is anyone taking into account the number of apostates, lots of them converts, who left islam? What is the probability that the numbers are cooked up to deceive? They brag about their numbers, but not much about those who leave.
Growing? In what manner?
Growing in intellect? in scientific understanding? Growing as a society of accepting and peaceful people?
Atheists are so far ahead of the curve that it isn't funny.
I’m the long shot it’s most likely the religion, Islam
