Thank you for publicising the world Catholic statistics (July AD2000).

It is more effective, however, in terms of comparison with other religions such as Islam (1523 million) and an increasing number of people with no religion, to group all Christians together.

Combining Catholics (1214 million), Orthodox (274 million), Protestants (419 million) and Evangelicals (456 million) gives a grand total of 2363 million Christians.
