I believe the last estimates were 2.1 billion Christians, 1 billion Muslim, and I'm not sure about the Jews. So about 50% of the world's population is Christian or Muslim.

What ever the percentages you have to keep deducting Muslims because they keep blowing themselves up so every time there is a new little Muslim born you should subtract at least 10 because I think thats a fair average for what they get each time

Christians over 2 billion, but not enough.
Muslims around 1.5 billion clearly misled people.
Jews millions but many are accepting Jesus as their Messiah.

Not scientific, but still the truth.

May God Bless you.
