Hello!
Roman Catholic ranked number one with more than one billion followers world wide, it is sometimes called a universal religion because of its many followers. Second are the rest of the other Christian religions combined, they are followed closely with non-Christians like Muslims and Jews.

What do you mean? Do you mean that Roman Catholicism is a religion, and it does not come under Christianity? If Roman Catholicism is not part of Christianity then what is it?
I thought Roman Catholics are also Christian. But if you don't want to call yourself Christian, then I am okay with you calling yourself as non-Christian. But I wonder if that's the view of other Roman Catholics. Cheers!

Hi 1anurag1, This is the six largest religions by population.
Christianity: 2.1 billion
Islam: 1.5 billion
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion
Hinduism: 900 million
Chinese traditional religion: 394 million
Buddhism: 376 million
Of course there are a lot more religions than these that I have listed but they are the largest. The third is not a religion but shows the number of people with no religion. Blessings.

I have read in books that the three top religions according to population are:-
1. christianity
2. Islam
3. Hinduism
other religions are very less populated in respect with these 3.

There's no rank. My religion is the best & true. This is the same mentality for all of us. So it's better not to rank & hurt people's sentiments.
Happy Lotting
