Well about a third of the world is Christian, but the most popular Christian denomination (Catholicism) has only about 1 billion people, which is slightly less than Islam.

Religions:
Christians 33.03% (of which Roman Catholics 17.33%, Protestants 5.8%, Orthodox 3.42%, Anglicans 1.23%), Muslims 20.12%, Hindus 13.34%, Buddhists 5.89%, Sikhs 0.39%, Jews 0.23%, other religions 12.61%, non-religious 12.03%, atheists 2.36% (2004 est.)
We see that Roman Catholic is just smaller than Muslims, which may be misleading, because the main diocese of many places are Orthodox. Together 20.75% (they are nearly identical and in places do not overlap).
