btw i know catholicism is a christian religion but like on things where it asks you to fill out your religion it gives you the choice of chirstian or catholic and i mean if there is a majority of Catholics its prolly better to be more specific than just saying "Christian"

Most of us believe, or would at least LIKE to belive that Christianity is the majority religion. For those believers among us it is a comforting thought: For those nonbelievers, it gives them a nice, big target for their bigotry and rage.
The truth is, humanism (yes, it IS a religion, by any standard definition of the word) far and away surpasses all other religions. The misunderstanding about this resides primarily in the fact that many people are truly humanists in their hearts, but do not realize it, or know that it is, indeed a religion.They claim to be christians, or buddhists, etc., but recite the humanist mantra subconsciously day in and day out. They claim to worship a higher being, but in their hearts, the only 'higher being' they acknowledge is themselves. Interesting, isn't it?

It used to be primarily various forms of Christianity with some pockets of Judaism, but now days more and more people in Western societies are starting to worship the State as the main provider.

Christiaity, although that may change over time, and i got a kick out of the guy who answered " greed " cause thats the way we Christians seem , and are, sometimes to the rest of the hungry world.

Scientism and Materialism. These are both religions, with devout followers and worshippers, with coffers and priests, and with their own deities.
Without a doubt: Scientism and Materialism.

Science and materialism are the religions and money and power are the gods
