Well going through
both the website I was surprised to see so many religions that I had never
heard of. The most that I was taught in my religion class that I took last
semester only mainly focused on Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islamic that’s
were the most of all after going through the website and looking into the
number of population following other religion were quite impressive. Some of
the ones I never herds of are as follows:

2.1 billion
- Islam:
1.5 billion

1.1 billion

800 thousand
- Rastafarianism:

All
this religions in this world that’s just great. Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist:
1.1 billion that’s a huge amount of number shows that there are people who do
not believe in the religion.
Do you think that our society, and/or
the world, is secularizing, or not?
Yes, I think that our society and
world is secularizing because people are moving out from different religions
and belief as scientists are doing more progress. Modernization is taking over
religions. If we go back and look at the list of religions according to the
followers 1.1 billion are those who doesn’t believe in the religion and some
call it superstitious.
