    ii) 100 yrs
    iii) 10,0000 years time

    Anyone like to hazard a guess?

    I reckon the non-believers will grow, mostly at the expense of Islam and  Christianity.  I don't know what will happen to the rest, but Judaism will probly grow given that Orthodox Jews have an average of something like 8 children per woman.

    i) 10 years -  I think Islam will suffer losses to Christianity, as terrorrism rises

    Another reason is because I think Islam grew because it has its finger on the pulse at the time. 

    As cultures develop (as they are doing already) they will become more & more out of touch with Islam, and as Islam is the most inflexible religion, it will take the greatest casualities in the number of followers.  They will simply  turn to another religion/non-religion instead.

    Yeah, but Catholics and Muslims also have nearly that many children!

    Both Catholic and muslim birth rates are falling though, and they're nowhere near the rate of 8 children per woman to begin with.

    In the west. I'm pretty sure that they are not falling massively in places like Pakistan. I know of a bloke with 14 children in Pakistan! But to be fair, he is a one off.

    It doesn't matter how many kids a bloke has, that has no bearing on demographics.  What counts is how many children per woman - I bet you that bloke's 14 kids weren't all from one wife.

    They were actually! I should have pointed that out! In Pakistan though, I reckon the average family will have about 4 children. Even though less than a few years ago, it will still result in an increasing population.

    Pakistan has 4.12 births per woman, so yeah that guy's wife was unusual.

    Like most other muslim countries listed, Pakistan's birth rate is on a downward trend.

    Take a ganders at this link.  Shit!   Looks like the irreligious & Western World is taking a battering, and the reverse is happening in the Islamic world & religious countries. Perhaps I should revise my next 10 year prediction?

    Anyone know why Spain (which I thought was a family/kid loving country) average 1.3 and South Korea,  Hong Kong & Macau average about 1!

    Its way more complicated than that IsLame.  The downward trend is happening in many of the countries shown as green and blue, while the countries shown as red have mostly hit a plateau and started to rise.  Also, child mortality rates need to be taken into account.  Also, I have a few misgivings about their figures, because Ireland's figure looks wrong.  The Irish Republic is well known to be the only country in the EU with a birth rate above the replacement rate, and yet we're shown in red.   Huh?  (Possibly they've taken an overall average for the North and Republic together which would lower the average a bit).

    Its a short term prediction (over 10 years) so i am not sure whether the differences you mention will have a marked affect in the short term.  Also an upward trend/downward trend can also change in the meantime.  

    However I do agree it is a simplification of the data, as it does not take mortality into account (a big factor in high birth rates) and assumes each child in the future will follow the ancestral religion.

    The difference over the next ten years is that the gap will close slightly, so your original prediction sounds right.  As to longer term trends, I agree they're impossible to predict.

    This is just the first in a series - but if the rest are as good as this then it is definitely worth subscribing to.

    I'm hoping they put your own vids into context, Hassan.  You're a voice of dissent which throws a spanner in between peer pressure and insufficient justification, with obviously the risk that your channel also provides a platform for the terminally fuckwitted indoctrinated to bear witness/dawah etc for their delusions.

    The superficial response to your vids,( ie you hater, you're such a hater, and your forum is .... oh so terribly hateful), is an acting out of those who don't have a dawah response to what you say, but they still have to preach for their corner somehow.  It was very comical to see exactly the same response from the equally deluded of different faiths to your vid about whether to stay silent or speak out.  It just provided more evidence, IMHO,  that religions are products of human psychological quirks, nothing to do with any supernatural creator of the Universe, (if there is even one).

    I'd like to think I'm making a difference.

    I still find it odd that some really crap channels have thousands of subs and tens of thousands of views and I still get much less.

    Skip to the last 20 minutes.  Their statements represent what is wrong with that fucking place and why they will never have peace. 

    And seeing attitudes like that was part of what made me lose my faith in religion a long time ago.
