The present figures are Islam 21%; Christianity 33%. Further information including figures for other religions here: http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html
........ of course it is a true Religion, and here is it's focal point on earth, the Kab'ah, inside which is the Black Stone called Hajr-e-Aswat which was a direct gift from Allah and is believed to be from and part of the Kab'ah located in the Heavens .....
Birth rate is declining in the west and increasing in the east, and hence this infers that the muslim population will increase. However, this baby boom is predicted to end about 2020 or 2030. A good book on the subject is 'The Clash of Civilizations' by Samuel Huntington. A bit right wing, not in the nazi sense, but in the isolationist/national sense of individualism.
But nevertheless it is still a nice intro and a fairly readable book.
One World Religion (OWR) is the view taken by many New Age theorists that eventually all of the world's religions, or at least portions of them, will combine to form the one "true" religion. It is believed by some that there are both truths and inaccuracies in all of the major world religions (really?? surely not??). During a period of spiritual enlightenment (ta-daaaa), the truths and inaccuracies will be made clear to the world through a gradual or spontaneous shift in world wide spiritual consciousness. Once this occurs, there will no longer be the need for war, terrorism or other types of conflicts based on different religious or spiritual beliefs.
Of course it must be true, wars will just be about land, wealth, power and oil by then....obviously.

All religion will be dead in a hundred years. Science and technology will take over. People will become more informed and rational and realise that there is no God/Allah/ Superbeing, those that do will be locked up in order to stop them causing war. The rest will work together to cure hunger, disease and world poverty instead of waiting on some non existent being to descend or ascend onto our planet and save us. We will look after one another and then find ways to explore the universe and space to see what really exists "up there".
patc........ i think you are living on another planet now..................'look after one another'?? - 90% of the charity/help organizations today who help one another are 'religious' mainly christian...what would happen then?...........then theres that little thing could 'self' (within all) or sin - whatever you want to call it
Sonofthunder I was simply putting forward an alternative to religion. I consider my "self" to be charitable but am not religious. And do you think my proposal is more bizarre than one which involves believing in being that no-one has ever seen or can prove exists and that when we die we go to some "other" better place!!! C'mon, whos living on another world now. Also if we concentrated on helping ALL the people of the world we would not need charitable organisations. You may call me a dreamer, but I' not the only one.
Well it's a personal view, but I look forward to the day when humankind finally turns its back on myth and superstition and the last embers of religion, whatever form it may take, die out. It has brought nothing but division, bloodshed, bigotry and violence to the world, and I agree with patc who says that science and technology will take over. Not that this is necessarily better, but at least humanity will know that it is in control of its own fate, as it has been all along. There is no answer to your troubles in the sky.
According to Islamic teachings ,The entire world will become Islamic under the rule of Jesus Son of Mary.Islam means submission to God's will,Living life following the tenets from the Messengers of God.
According to Islam the fall of the western values like democracy is inevitable.If you still beleive that you are living in the Land of the free,look harder .All of the so called freedom is transient it can be cut short according to the whims and fancies of the Rulers using 'Terror threats' as an excuse.We are living in a world controlled by a few forces.
The day will come when people will realise that they are being taken for a ride .they will look for alternate methods of governing.This is where the arrival or return of the Messiah will change the way things are done.He will be the ruler of all mankind.
Humans cannot resist true love.And that alone will be their guiding force to the Spirit of God.those who resist are the Hellbound.
Spooky.Isnt it.
I am not making this up ,Please note I have sufficient Islamic knowledge to back me up.
People Who fo;;ow Jesus are called Christians.But Jesus himself lived according to the Laws of Moses.,who received it from God.Abraham lived by the code of Laws given to him and followed the teachings of the Messengers of God .Muslims follow the laws of all Prophets,.All the messengers of God submitted themselves to the commands of god.This is the meaning of Islam. this definition alone makes Islam the only religion.
By the way if some one reads the Bible they may be surprised to find that Jesus never commanded people to worship him or his mother.Before the 'crucifixion' Jesus prayed 7 times for the cup to be taken away,A man whose prayers to feed 1000s of people and cure the ill and raise the dead are accepted and answered,what makes us think that his last ones are not.
We are not Christians ,,We are Paulians ..The man who never met ,the Master..Who never lived by the laws of Moses ..suddenly becomes the holy warrior..Our religion has been corrupted at the very core.
Jesus said 'I am here to uphold the Laws(of Moses) not to break them'.
sad thing is by ditching the old testament and the Commandments we have all broken the teachings of Jesus,
It is said that the Lord sends his Mercy first ,When it is not received well ,He sends His wrath.Jesus being the Spirit of God embodies both .His return will be of wrath not Mercy.
All these stupid TV&Films about the 2nd coming involves mostly another birth for the Christ.
This is pure Cr*p fantasy.There is only one Birth for Christ the man.
It is sad that people do not read ,investigate and discriminate Truth from falsehood.It is the sorry mental state of most of us that we want to believe whatever the system(government&media) tells us,because the alternate is very tough ,,it involves educating oneself,and developing and disciplining the Spirit.
this is a long and hard topic .I
I really want you to pay attention to my answer I AM a Muslim not an Arabian Orthadox Muslim but a Black Muslim. Some people in your answers said Islam is just like Christany and Judaism but it is not Christany teaches that God is in the sky a spirt a thing that you can not see. It teaches that you can not see God until you die. One there has never been any proof that anyone has seen God when they die. Islam teachesthat God is a MAN that you can see before you die we teach that the Blackman was the first on the planet the first the original. we do not believe that when you die you will see God because when you die the earth has to use your body you transmutate and you are gone. Know i am a 14 year old girl and i understand this much. now another one of your answerers said "i will never be a muslim any of my life" i think that was unnessasary and rude to the people who are muslim i would never disrespect Christanity or any religion. The biggest thing is that We as Muslims do not believe that Jesus is God. we love and respect him so much but he is not God if you read the Bible with a open mind you will see and understand that Jsus says his self about him not being God. If you recall ever learning about slavery you know that at first the black man was a Muslim even in roots it shows that kuntakenta was a Muslim. Were ever you are from find a mosque if Islam Go on the internet and research to find a mosque you can go to if you are in the bay there is a mosque in east oakland richmond on 4th street and mcdonold go you will be surprised. Now to answer you question yes this can be true i have never heard this pharse but yes it could be true Islam is a righteous, true, and all telling religion thank you for your time.....
