Talk:World Religions by Number of Followers

As an open topic for discussion, would it be appropriate to state where these figures come from? A Church might have a different opinion than, say a census. There are a few websites that keep current, or relatively current on figures like these. And our figures should err toward conservatism, but some reference of some kind seems appropriate for a list of quantities. Terryeo 23:17, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

added one, a few more may be nice as well. --Hojimachong^talk 23:23, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

To Conservapedia: Perhaps you need to be made aware that the bias of your encyclopedia is annoying. I can understand why a conservative writer might classify Mormonism and even seventh day Adventism as other than Christian, but to exclude the Jehovah’s witnesses from Christianity just because you disagree with them is ludicrous. The Witnesses base their expressed doctrines on the Bible far more closely than some of the denominations you list as Christian. I challenge you to give a reason ( as in “rational” ) for this exclusion .

Open up your New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures and read Genesis 15:7; 22:14; 24:35,40,42,48,50,51,56; 26:22; 27:20; 49:18, then compare them with Exodus 6:2-3. Either God is lying when he said it, or Moses lied when he wrote both books, or the lie was inserted by Charles Taze Russell when the JWs were founded. Karajou (talk) 01:36, 28 February 2018 (EST)

It was God or Moses who lied.

K j v with additions from Hebrew text:

And he said unto him, I am the Lord (YHWH) that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it (Gen 15:7).

And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the Lord (YHWH): 3 And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name Jehovah (YHWH) was I not known to them (Ex 6: 2-3).
