There are approximately 2 million Christians (one million Catholics and one million Protestants of varying sects), plus 1 million Muslims. Thus, the total would be 3 million, or about half of the world's total population. (Of the other 3 billion of the world's population, 1.2 billion are Chinese, 1.1 billion are from India, and the rest include "all others").
