Hi, I was wondering what is your knowledge level about your own religion and other people's religion. I do not mean hype from media, but real knowledge, Please put a percentage next to the religion if you know anything at all:
Christianity
Islam
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist:
Hinduism
Chinese traditional religion
Buddhism
primal-indigenous
African Traditional & Diasporic
Sikhism
Juche
Spiritism
Judaism
Baha'i
Jainism
Shinto
Cao Dai
Zoroastrianism
Tenrikyo
Neo-Paganism
Unitarian-Universalism
Rastafarianism
Scientology
Please forgive me if I miss any :)

I am answering the percentage as the portion of all I know about religion rather than what percentage of a particular religion I know. In other words, I am rating religion as a whole as 100% and of that 100%, where each religion lies in my estimate of knowledge.
Christianity 25%
Islam 15%
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/... 10%
Hinduism 5%
Chinese traditional religion 2%
Buddhism 2%
primal-indigenous 1%
African Traditional & Diasporic 2%
Sikhism 0%
Juche 0%
Spiritism 5%
Judaism 10%
Baha'i 0%
Jainism 0%
Shinto 0%
Cao Dai 0%
Zoroastrianism 0%
Tenrikyo 0%
Neo-Paganism 3%
Unitarian-Universalism 5%
Rastafarianism 0%
Scientology 15%
If that totals 100%, that's my unscientific estimate. Excellent quesion!!! I don't know that I've ever actually thought about it this way... in numerical equivalence. I just try to learn what I can.

There is no known answer for this, without performing a very diverse and knowledgeable study group or by just copying data from someone Else's study. The study would have to be performed within a theological group or entity in order to be any where near accurate.
How can someone respond with a known percentage variable, if they're unaware of what percentage constitutes their lack of knowledge.
In other words, you would have to be aware of the 65% of a religion that you no nothing about to accurately state that you know 35% about any given religion or lack thereof.
Remember this, that without being God yourself, there is no way to know 100% about any faith.

I know 14 of those religions, the rest I've never even heard of.
I know my religion very well (more than 80%), I try to find out about other religions as much as I can, but it's a tricky business if you don't have a guide you can trust. I wish I knew more!

Yikes!!! Big question...
I've been a Christian for over 30 years, and have not even scratched the surface. I do know a bit about Mormonism, Scientology, Judiasm, Baha'i, Islam, Hinduism and secular/atheistic systems of thought. Comparative religious studies are something of a hobby for me...

I know enough for me to be able to chose Jesus.
All the other ways it is about you and what and how you do it.
Jesus did it for me already, so I need to accept Him as a Lord and Savior. So it is not really about me. It is about Him. And that is so great to get more than I deserve.
