[Edit] |
[Edit] 
The following are estimates (made based on statistics taken in 2008) listed by numbers of adherents.
Catholicism - 1.2 billion
Protestantism (combined) - 699 million
Eastern Orthodoxy - 260 million
Oriental Orthodoxy - 79 million
Anglicanism - 77 million
Nontrinitarianism - 23 million
Those numbers do not reflect how many are actually practicing, but rather give the total amount of those that were baptized or profess to some degree the faith with which they have identified themselves.
