Because they have the youngest median age (30) of all religious groups, Muslims are the fastest-growing such group in the world, and by 2050, India will be the country with the world's largest Muslim population, said American think tank Pew Research Centre, this week.



While Islam is currently the world's second-largest religion after Christianity, it is now also the fastest-growing major religion. And if current demographic trends continue, the Muslim population is expected to exceed the number of Christians by the end of this century, Pew said.


There were 1.6 billion Muslims in the world as of 2010 - roughly 23 per cent of the global population - according to a Pew estimate. Currently, Indonesia has the world's largest Muslim population.


In a 2015 report, Pew said that while the world's population is projected to grow 35 percent in the coming decades, the number of Muslims is expected to increase by 73 percent -to 2.8 billion in 2050. In fact, Muslims are the only major religious group projected to increase faster than the world's population as a whole, the think tank said.

More than resources being spent, the danger is that India will have very large Muslim population (via large number of children) while all the Christian organizations around the world are serious about 'harvesting' in India to establish a large Christian population (via conversion).

The danger is that both being aggressive religions intent on spreading can make India the land of religious war.

The only thing to do is to get past the caste related issues and focus on teaching people about Hindu Dharma at all levels of the population. A school curricula needs to be created by non-profit groups (like Vedic Heritage classes taught by Chinmaya mission and others) .

In Hindu thinking children are equated to wealth. Such a thinking has to be reestablished via religious institutions.

This report pertains to the year 2015 by the very same PEW ResearchCentre...

[FONT=&quot]But what that same report also shows is that Hinduism happens to be the fastest growing religion for a very motley set of countries.

[/FONT][h=1]A little-known fact: Hinduism is the fastest-growing religion in both Pakistan and Saudi Arabia[/h][h=2]Hinduism is also the fastest growing religion in Ireland and Italy.[/h]Excerpts:

But Hinduism is also growing in unusual places. Again, remember, its relative growth outside India is tiny in absolute numbers – but that still means there are some countries that will have double the number of Hindus by 2050 than they did in 2010. In Saudi Arabia, Hindus currently make up about 1.1% of the population, a number that is expected to go up to 1.6% by 2050, largely on the back of migration. The report suggests nearly 1 million Hindus are expected to move to a different region over the next four decades.

The growth in Pakistan, however, is a slightly different matter and, ironically, is the result of a metric that often turns into an allegation in India: the fertility rate of Hindus. While the fertility rate of all religions globally is about 2.5 children per woman, and just 2.1 in the Asia-Pacific region, the Hindu fertility rate in Pakistan is 3.2, which happens to be the exact same as the Muslim fertility rate in India.

The third country in Asia where Hinduism is growing is Thailand, where it is slated to go up from 0.1% of the Thai population to 0.2% by 2050.
