Best Answer

Hinduism has the largest number of followers, followed closely by Islam (900 million and some 850 million respectively), followed by Buddhism and Christianity (with Buddhism slightly leading but both in the neighborhood of 320-335 million), followed by CHinese folk religions with some 235 million.

The figures then drop sharply to 18-20 million Sikhs, followed distantly by Jews, Jains, Confucians, Zoroastrians, Shintos, Bahais, and a host of folk and ethnic or tribal religions, Yaresan, Yezidi, Mandeans etc...

Buddhism, Hinduism , Islam, Christianity, and judiasm

Confucianism: is Humanism, a philosophy or attitude that is concerned with human beings, their achievements and interests, rather than with the abstract beings and problems of theology. In Confucianism, man is the center of the universe: man cannot live alone, but with other human beings. For human beings, the ultimate goal is individual happiness. The necessary condition to achieve happiness is through peace. To obtain peace, Confucius discovered human relations consisting of the five basic relationships:ruler & subject, husband & wife, father & son, older sibling & younger sibling and friend & friend which are based on love and duties. War has to be abolished; and the Great Unity of the world should be developed.

The Human beings are supposed to love one another in the name of God, but they are killing one another in the name of God. hope this helps.

Islam and Muslims

The word "Islam" is an Arabic word which means "submission to the will of God". This word comes from the same root as the Arabic word "salam", which means "peace". As such, the religion of Islam teaches that in order to achieve true peace of mind and surety of heart, one must submit to God and live according to His Divinely revealed Law. The most important truth that God revealed to mankind is that there is nothing divine or worthy of being worshipped except for Almighty God, thus all human beings should submit to Him.

The word "Muslim" means one who submits to the will of God, regardless of their race, nationality or ethnic background. Being a Muslim entails wilful submission and active obedience to God, and living in accordance with His message. Some people mistakenly believe that Islam is just a religion for Arabs, but nothing could be further from the truth. Not only are there converts to Islam in every corner of the world, especially in England and America, but by taking a look at the Muslim World from Bosnia to Nigeria, and from Indonesia to Morocco, one can clearly see that Muslims come from many various races, ethnic groups and nationalities. It is also interesting to note that in actuality, more than 80% of all Muslims are not Arabs - there are more Muslims in Indonesia than in the whole Arab World! So, though even though it is true that most Arabs are Muslims, the large majority of Muslims are not Arabs. However, anyone who submits completely to God and worships Him alone is a Muslim.
