Are there more methodists or Catholics in the world?

Answer 1

More Muslims, this is from the Guardian:

The number of Muslims has overtaken that of Roman Catholics for the first time, the Vatican said yesterday.

Muslims account for 19.2% of the world's population, while Catholics make up 17.4%, according to the Vatican's new statistics yearbook, which is based on figures for 2006.

"For the first time in history we are no longer at the top: the Muslims have overtaken us," said Monsignor Vittorio Formenti, who edited the yearbook

Answer 2

Yes, there are more Muslims than Catholics (the following quotes are from a March 2008 article from the British Reuters) Monsignor Vittorio Formenti, who compiled the Vatican's newly-released 2008 yearbook of statistics, said Muslims made up 19.2 percent of the world's population and Catholics 17.4 percent.

However, if you lump all "Christians" together, then they far outweight Muslims: He said that if all Christian groups were considered, including Orthodox churches, Anglicans and Protestants, then Christians made up 33 percent of the world's population -- or about 2 billion people.

The Vatican recently put the number of Catholics in the world at 1.13 billion people. It did not provide a figure for Muslims, generally estimated at around 1.3 billion.

Answer 3

There are about 1.2 billion catholics in the world and about 1.5 billion Muslims... All Chritian denomination are about 2.2 billion combined.

Answer 4

Catholics.
