Twenty years ago, the world had about 1.1 billion Muslims. Twenty years from now, it will have about twice as many - and they'll represent more than a quarter of all people on earth, according to a new study released Thursday.
That's a rise from less than 20 percent in 1990.
Pakistan will overtake Indonesia as home of the largest number of Muslims, as its population pushes over 256 million, the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life projects.
The number of Muslims in the United States will more than double, to 6.2 million, it anticipates.
Afghanistan's population will nearly double, to about 50.5 million, making it home to the ninth largest Muslim population in the world.

If they ever get a little Power in the USA watch what they do to the liberals, Whoopi & Joy better head for the hills, I would also advise Rosie O'Donnell & Barney Frank to get their asses out of the country as fast as they can.

The liberals love affair with Islam goes on, this is the "Pie Face" spouting her Left Wing Crap (doesn't this make you feel all gooey and nice, tee hee)
News:
Katie Couric thinks she has part of the solution to bigotry in America: a Muslim version of "The Cosby Show."
The CBS News anchor made the suggestion on her web show while discussing the biggest news stories of 2010, including the mosque near Ground Zero and the "seething hatred" that has grown against Muslims in America.

This, coupled with birth rates below replacement in many non-Muslim populations should make for an interesting world.
The future belongs to those who show up for it. For those calling for self-extinction in the name of reducing population growth in order to "save the planet": into whose hands are you delivering stewardship of the planet? Your ideas will die with you.
Huh. It is unfortunate that the Jewish people, of whom there may be 30 million worldwide, have done such a poor job of such a simple task as replicating DNA, that our ability to act in and on our world has disappeared.
Qualilty, my boy, not quantity.
As to the fear that there will one day be more Muslims than Christians, a sort of sub-text of this "look out for all the Muslims!" thread, both groups have historically been equally capable of intolerable behavior, despite some momentary snap-shot some are intent on using the characterize the broad groups.
I'd rather there be two billion Moslem moderates than two billion secular or Christian extremists, and vice versa. That's the issue, not what they mumble and which way they face when they're mumbling.

So, 20% will grow to 25%, and...?

Ok. Let me know how it works out if they halve their population every generation.

I think you mean "double their population."
From the fact that their proportionate population will rise from 20% to 25%, the obvious conclusion is that non-Moslem populations are also growing at close to the same pace.
I have no idea what the equivalent numbers would be for Hindus, but I would imagine they would be high, given the absence in India of a China-like control on population growth. Once again, I am anything but worried. Confessional-group bean-counting partakes way too much of "monolith" thinking. The Moslems I know and have known have no particularly dangerous plans, and none vociferously protested the exposed faces of women, whether Moslem or non-Moslem.
Come on dude, you know 90% of Muslims behave pretty much like 90% of Christians, and you know the 10% of Christian crazies can cause you issues just like the 10% of Moslems who are nuts.
As a Jew I look at the behavior of Christian Europe over a millennium, and when I hear this "oh no! Too many Moslems!" stuff, it cracks me up.
It's more like "too many extremists," and unfortunately, they find fertile ground in any religious community.

Really? "Qualilty, my boy, not quantity."?? That sounds like some sort of superior race-ish which is strange coming from a ummm...Jew. I'll assume you were being sarcastic.
But this may be avoided if science can eventually disprove the god-stories once and for all, or maybe some contact with aliens will do it. Once religion gets out of the way, then we can get on with the business of reducing the chasm between the classes.
