Excellent infographic.

This is inaccurate…. It shows north western India under Islam, which is not the case… Also Nepal is partly covered by budhism; whereas in reality its 100% Hinduism…

north west India is what geographers call Pakistan, and yes its a Muslim state.

Reply to simplyjat:
Actually, it very much so IS the case. India has a massive Muslim population, numbering upwards of 15 million. Most of them live in the northwest of the country.

This
is
awesome

Nowhere is 100% one thing. There is always at least one person going against the norm.

What about Paganism? They left out the oldest religion…

Again, simplyjat is wrong. The area is predominantly muslim, and Pakistan a very islamic country.

son of genghis, 15 million is not massive. India has a population of 1,129,866,154 people, probably even more. the muslim group is really really small.

I like it, but it’s a bit inaccurate not all of the amaericas are cristian.and therenare many religions missing.
November 11th, 2007 at 9:36 pm
This is not accurate at all. Christianity spread much more quickly and more broadly than is given credit for in this video. The fact that more information is given about certain areas is not indicative that those are the only areas under Christianity’s influence

Just wanted to note that you missed the entire Christian Kingdom that existed in Ethiopia. Good idea though

Excellent graphic; I did not know Abraham was born in what I assume is modern day Persia or there abouts. You left out one important movement. THE FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER…..all kidding aside it’s great and have shared it with other friends who like objectivity when it comes to religion. KUDOS to you.

No Scientology?
November 14th, 2007 at 11:35 pm
very good overview of the spread of religions but you have forgotten the latest accepted religion Ba’Hai
November 15th, 2007 at 7:50 am
You left out unicorns & the tooth fairy.
