Revised and Updated:
"The World's 10 BN Souls will probably look like this in 2050:
1. Christianity far ahead ruling the field and owning the game at 4 BN.
2. Islam in 2nd place at around 3.3 BN. [+300 MN to Muslims, as they seem to be growing fastest]
3. Hinduism in 3rd place at 1.6 BN. [+100 MN here]
That already accounts for 8.9 BN or about 89% of the expected World's Population at the time.
4. Buddhism and the World's Folk Religions at around 1 BN.
5. Atheism at around 100 MN [-400 MN] or less. Let's hope that Militant Atheism - a fringe of a fringe that believes God not only does not exist but also, absurdly, that it is allegedly EVIL to believe that He does, which is itself Evil on their part - will be 10 MN or less.
If Christ and, say, Darwin or Marx were running for King of the Universe, Christ would be owning and Darwin/Marx losing badly."
Rough Stats, to be sure, but if anyone has a better estimate, and reasons why, I'm all ears.
Atheism is going to Lose. If this were a Presidential Election, its fate would be considered almost dead certain already. Not immediately, to be sure. But in 25 odd years.
