Christians were the largest religious group in the world in 2015, making up nearly a third (31 percent) of Earth's 7.3 billion people
Between 2015 and 2060, Muslims – the major religious group with the youngest population and the highest fertility – are projected to increase by 70 percent.
Muslims have the highest fertility rate of any religious group – an average of 2.9 children per woman, well above replacement level (2.1), the minimum typically needed to maintain a stable population. Christians are second, at 2.6 children per woman. Hindu and Jewish fertility (2.3 each) are both just below the global average of 2.4 children per woman. All other groups have fertility levels too low to sustain their populations
india is projected to have the largest Muslim population of any country in the world in 2050, surpassing Indonesia
in the next four decades, atheists, agnostics and other people who do not affiliate with any religion – though increasing in the U.S. and France – will make up a declining share of the world’s total population
If current trends continue, by 2050 Muslims will be more numerous in the U.S. than people who identify as Jewish on the basis of religion and Christians in the U.S. will decline from more than three-quarters of the population to two-thirds.
in 2015, 40 percent of countries had high or very high levels of restrictions on religion
he share of countries with high or very high government restrictions on religion – i.e., laws, policies and actions that restrict religious beliefs and practices – was 25 percent in 2015
In 2015, 27 percent of countries had high or very high levels of acts of religious hostility by private individuals, organizations or groups in society
One hundred and five countries experienced widespread government harassment of religious groups in 2015
In 2015, harassment of Christians, either by government or social groups, was found in 108 of 195 countries; Muslims were harassed in 125 countries and harassment of Jews was found in 74countries
