Excerpts are given below from the link you wanted me to read...thanks Jennifer...Thank you very much

"Christians are the largest portion of this group and the largest faith, with one third of the world's population. Christianity is roughly holding its own as a portion of the world's population. At both the beginning and the end of the century Christians were about one third of the human race.

Islam is about one fifth of the world's population and growing rapidly. If present growth rates for the world population and the Muslim population continued in about a hundred and eighty years half of the world's population will be Muslim, and in eighty years Islam would pass Christianity and become the world's largest faith. Islam's rapid growth is mostly the result of a higher birth rate, but Islam also wins more than it loses through conversions"

Keep trying...Jenni
