The United States appears to be going through an unprecedented change in religious practices. Large numbers of American adults are disaffiliating themselves from Christianity and from other organized religions. Since World War II, this process had been observed in other countries, like the U.K., other European countries, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. But, until recently, affiliation with Christianity had been at a high level -- about 87% -- and stable in the U.S.
The fastest growing religion (in terms of percentage) is Wicca -- a Neopagan religion that is sometimes referred to as Witchcraft. Numbers of adherents went from 8,000 in 1990 to 134,000 in 2001. Their numbers of adherents are doubling about every 30 months. 4,5 Wiccans in Australia have a very similar growth pattern, from fewer than 2,000 in 1996 to 9,000 in 2001. 10 In Canada, Wiccans and other Neopagans showed the greatest percentage growth of any faith group. They totaled 21,080 members in 1991, an increase of 281% when compared with 1990.

The numbers come from the under developed and poor countries. And that is where both Islam and Christian missionaries are busy spreading themselves. Pope and Mullahs both have targets in those areas for their Bishops and Imams to convert. And many places they collide with each other in that process like in Nigeria nad some other coutries.
Hindus and Jews do not spread their religion, so they do not grow in numbers. Though they are much older religions.
Buddhism is another one which has some potential to grow in China.

Either Unitarian Universalism or Gnosticism.
I think these two are great, positive open minded religions.. we need more questioning in religion.
Wicca is also growing since more people are learning about the fact that it is a positive religion and not an "evil devil worshipping" one.

In my opinion,all the religions will Vanish in couse of time and only one relegion having the flair of love ,compassion an integrity will be there. However this will come from SANATAN DHARMA, the oldest religion created by God itself.

It's my belief that after the rapture of the church, which is the removal of all born again Christians, Islam will move across the face of the earth like a dark hand.
