Well actually it closer to 85% of the world, and i would probably say about 99% has a belief in something maybe not an organized religion.

That article links back to a religious site so of course they would inflate the numbers lol.
Why would I need to source my statement when I was referencing from another posters source?

You cant use a picture and a source to a conspirator, that is called facts and its bad.
But, i like the framework you did on the pic

I think we've run into a problem. Conflicting sources.
Adherents says 84% are religious, another says 53%, and 65% and so on.
Then there's the statistics that include anyone believing in a God as being religious.
I think I'll leave you guys/gals to it.

Nothing new bro. Conflicting stats are a way of life on the intertubez and ATS. I usually look more at the average of them, than at actual percentages, but I wasn't going to spend a half hour averaging 10 websites figures, so I just picked one to make a point, which nobody got anyway.

That's fair enough.
I did search a bit and it does look like the 1.1 billion figure is used more often than not. *red face*
ETA: I read the thread again, just coz lol.
It's pretty obvious that the religions are wrong. Just look at the errors in "their" history for start.

Well, you know. The Devil made it look wrong, and all that.

I wonder if our whole chronology of history is also a complete fabrication, just to support the OT & NT.
How far does the corruption go?

Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit.

About 90% of the Nordic and germanic states has a belief in something, just not the monothestic religions.

Hmmm, no, nothing wrong with you. You've just put your measure of faith in the concept that there is nothing else there greater than mankind, except maybe aliens.
Not saying you don't have a clue, more like you are willing to bet that since nothing we've experienced thus far can prove the existence of any deity to you (and those like you), you have put your faith in the belief that it will continue to be that way. But in the end, you have just as much faith as any religious person does. Considering the enormity of what we still don't know and have yet to see, you pretty much have to.
So, nope, nothing wrong with you. You've got faith too.
