VATICAN CITY - Islam has surpassed Roman Catholicism as the world's largest religion, the Vatican newspaper said Sunday.


"For the first time in history, we are no longer at the top: Muslims have overtaken us," Monsignor Vittorio Formenti said in an interview with the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano. Formenti compiles the Vatican's yearbook.

He said that Catholics accounted for 17.4 percent of the world population — a stable percentage — while Muslims were at 19.2 percent.

"It is true that while Muslim families, as is well known, continue to make a lot of children, Christian ones on the contrary tend to have fewer and fewer," the monsignor said.

Formenti said that the data refer to 2006. The figures on Muslims were put together by Muslim countries and then provided to the United Nations, he said, adding that the Vatican could only vouch for its own data.

When considering all Christians and not just Catholics, Christians make up 33 percent of the world population, Formenti said.

Spokesmen for the Vatican and the United Nations did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment Sunday.

Hey MiddleWay, ever get the feeling there's only a handful of us preaching sanity? God, I look at all this hate in here and in other forums and wonder, how the hell is the world not blown up yet?
We clearly got our work cut out for us, don't we? Trying to get people to actually live together in peace?
I sense much fear out there....
If only the big 3 could realize we all worship the same God and leave the converting to those who actually live their lives with love and compassion.

Yes, fear leads to irrational hatred and then hysteria.

War is so much easier than peace...

I live in a country which is 90 percent Muslim and the majority is AGAINST sharia law. How do you explain that?
Some people are ignorant. All Muslims are not the same, just as all Jews or Christians.

Denominations and such...

Name one news conference, one head of an Islamic Country, one
national / international Muslim leader to condemn suicide bombings,
hostage taking orBin Laden.How about a bunch of them regularly appearing on Al Jezeera trying to bring moderation to the scene?
Preaching to their intentionally ignorant masses on RELIGIOUS TOLERANCE. ha.

Your assumptions are very telling of the type of person YOU are.
Projection at it's best....
Prediction from trends is not the same thing as projection. From the fact that Sharia is only implemented where Muslims have enough of a population to dominate politics, we can expect that they could try to implement it in any place in which Muslim population is growing and continues to grow.

Plenty of Muslims, even here on Topix, have not just admitted that it is their goal to turn every country into an Islamic state, but have actually bragged about it. You have nowhere to hide. We know what the Quran calls for. Too late to fool us.

Lots of people in Afghanistan were against the Taliban too, but since they're Muslims and the all quote the same Quran, they were not able to object to the extreme fundamentalist interpretation.

And believing in spooks can lead to ANYTHING at all, since the logical basis needed for sanity is not required.

Belief is so much easier than anything else.

none of them advocate beheading and wholesale murder like you do. I see that there is now a fatwa on Geert Wilders for saying that moslems are violent and issue fatwas.

you are a moslem, and as usual, NEVER condemn violence by moslems. I don't believe in the "moderate moslem" . He doesn't exist. IF 98% WERE moderate, they would crush the jihadists - but they don't. Do you?

Yes, and contrary to what AsiaSauce has posted, the Afghanistan constitution is based on Islamic law.
I would invite anyone to look up and read about the juriprudence of the Afghani Supreme Court, remember the Afghani that was tried for blasphemy?

Oh pleeeeease Ali Baba - why not call yourself Santa?
Hw much deceit can you dish? That is like saying
Christian Cult leader Jim Jones quoted the bible so
all Ministers should kill their congregations with koolaid. You do not speak out because you are them-
......JIHADIST. TERRORIST.

I see Rushdie's book "Satan Verses" is being staged
in Europe...a fatwah put him underground for
decades. Now we need FITNA - the musical.

You mean like most Iraqis didn't want a US invasion but still got one oanyway? Sure, if you lose a war you pay a price. But my post was in response to someone who claimed all Muslims wanted sharia - and they don't.

I answered your question but you ignore mine. Pretty weak of you.
Muslim moderates do speak out against the extremists - constantly. If you want to see only bad, that's all you will see. Google "Muslims against terrorism" yourself and you will see endless reports of petitions,. mass protests, speeches, publicity campaigns and other efforts by Muislims directed against the fundamentalists.
Just because you don't know about it doesn't mean it's not happening. Question is why you don't already know tehse things.
