You know when a man says or in this case 2% of men say the rest of the world is crazy.. It means the 2% minority has changed the definition of 'crazy' so as to justify their behavior to themselves...
From your link:
Code:Christianity 2.1 billion
Islam 1.5 billion
Secular*/Nonreligious*/Agnostic/Atheist ≤ 1.1 billion
Hinduism 1 billion
Chinese traditional religion* 394 million
1.1Billion / 7billion ~ 15% of the world's population.
A bit far from your paltry 2%, wouldn't you say?
I see you were confused by the table allow me to paste the first line of the wiki page for you:
The CIA's World Factbook gives the world population as 7,021,836,029 (July 2012 est.) and the distribution of religions as Christian 31.59% (of which Roman Catholic 18.85%, Protestant 8.15%, Orthodox 4.96%, Anglican 1.26%), Muslim 23.2%, Hindu 15.0%, Buddhist 7.1%, Sikh 0.35%, Jewish 0.2%, Baha'i 0.11%, other religions 10.95%, non-religious 9.66%, atheists 2.01%. (2010 est.).
So I guess I do need to admit I was wrong as well. I said 2% when in fact I was off by .01%
Win some, loose some.

Lets give you the benfit of the doubt, and say 1/2 do. then what? that still leaves 1/3 of the world's population as being High functioning 'delousional' people.
Which is still far and above over the 2.01% that claim everyone who believes in God is crazy.
