There are 1.3 billion muslims and there are 6.5 billion people so it's not quit 1/3. 1/6th would be closer.

Higg is correct. Muslims are about 1.5 billion people, or roughly 21% of a world population of 7 billion. 33% is a huge overestimation. You're like the Muslim girl who tried to convince me that every year, 200 million people convert to Islam, a rate that would make the world 100% Muslim in 30 years.
Lol...

I heard it was more like 1/6. But religions are always inflating their numbers. Even at one 1/3, you're still outnumbered. Keep the name "Custer" firmly in mind, OK?

That explains Jesus' comments found at Matt.7:13,14:
"Go in through the narrow gate because broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction and many are the ones going in through it,whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life and few are the ones finding it."

Good for you :-)
so what? the other 2/3s are none-muslims...what is your point?
at one point, nearly 100% of the world population thought the sun rotated around the moon...does that make it right?
God Bless.
