One of the gleefully exhulted "facts" (and I use that term lightly) is that Islam is the biggest single religion in The World surpassing even Catholicism.
But, (as is with most of the stuff posted by the fanatics) it is a lie.
The fact is that they try to compare Islam the entire religion to Catholicism instead of the entire religion of Christianity.
The fact is that when one compares apples to apples and not apples to oranges, here is the truth:
The largest non-Christian denomination is Sunni Islam. They have a toal of 1 Billion adherents.
Catholicism alone (not including any of the other Christian denominations)?
1.1 Billion.
No comparison. They are 100 Million apart.
So, to put a rest to the retarded obsession of anti-Catholics...no, Islam has not passed Catholicism when one is comparing one faith to another.
We still are and will always be #1!
Because one doesn't light a lamp and place it under a cover and because Jesus willed it that Disciples be made of all nations!
Amen!

So what? Do numbers matter as far as truth is concerned? I would want the whole world to be Catholic, but even if there were only 12 Catholics, that wouldn't make it less awesome. Didn't Jesus say that the path to life is narrow and few enter it? I do agree that we are #1 though and we kick Islam's butt.

The point was that people are spreading false information in order to belittle Catholicism. Even there were only 12 of us, we'd still be His Church. It's like Anti-Catholics forgot Jesus' saying that one doesn't light a lamp and place it under a cover. Of course His Church would be successful and The Catholic Church being His Church is the most successful of all. 2,000 and still going strong.
