Actually Stuart, if you really want to talk about the fastest growing religion, wouldn't that be a very very small one? Example: Lets say Islam has 1000 theorhetical members total. They add two members every week, that is a .2% growth rate that week.
Now Rickology only has 2 members, but they also add 2 members per week which means they have a 100% growth rate that week.
Which is "faster growing"?? I would say the religion that is doubling every week is faster growing, no? Sort of like in the stock market...the smaller companies grow much faster than the established ones. So I would actually find it difficult to believe that Islam is the fastest growing religion since it is also the second largest. CNN probably left out all the smaller religions.
This really has nothing to do with the real world, but it is an interesting discussion just for argument's sake.
