Quite often, when someone is exposed; Name-calling provides a false sense of security; a false sense of validity. It's really a trademark of little children; when they say: "My daddy is stronger than your daddy."

For example: Jehovah's Witnesses often expose the pagan origins of so many of mainstream religions customs and holidays. They can't deny those origins - - so what do they have left, but to throw out 'labels'. It makes them feel better.

Is Jehovah witnesses the third largest religion in the world?

No. I don't really see it as a religion - it is more like a branch (or church, or denomination, or sect) of a larger religion, namely, Christianity. Which religions are the largest of course depends how you classify them - for example, if you classify Christianity as a single religion, or each of the Christian denominations as a separate religion - or some of them. Christianity (as a group that includes Jehova's Witnesses) is the largest religion worldwide, followed by Islam. It seems that the third and fourth places are Hinduism and Buddhism.
