Worldwide Muslims

According to the recently new poll of the amount of Muslims in the world, it turns out that 1.57 billion Muslims. That is one in four people worldwide. Indonesia and Pakistan rank among the top countries with the most Muslims. Also India has more Muslims than any other country except these two. Two out of three Muslims live in Asia stretching from Turkey to Indonesia. Why is this important to the U.S.? It shows the increasing rise of Muslims and teaches us that we need to learn this religion. As of 2005, 2.25 billion Christians worldwide with Muslims ranked in the second religion. Our country has been based off of Christianity, but as a worldwide nation we should learn the basics of other religions as well.

It's surprising to know that the religion of Muslim is rising so rapidly. The next poll going to be taken is the religion of Christianity. i hope to see that that as well is rising. i do think it is important to understand the ways of the Muslim society and as well as for them to understand the Christian ways. As a united world it is a priority to understand one's knowledge in order to be a successful world.
