That it's 10 years old?
Also that, proportionally, little has changed in the last 5 years of the video.
The problem with extrapolations is that they're not always accurate. Things change in unexpected ways. For example, suppose there's a new religion that does not make that video yet but takes off and has many millions of adherents in a few years. The most we can say is "if current trends continue then this will be the situation in 10 years.
And as @SalixIncendium pointed out, trends don't necessarily continue in straight lines.

I have no idea
Guess we'll have to wait and see! I'd love to see more indigenous practices resurface in some kind of incarnation. Adds color and cultural flavor, IMO.

1st thing I noticed, is that the non religious was rising nicely for some time, then started to drop. But at least most of that decline seemed to go into Islam and Hindu. So no big deal, I guess.
this has a lot to do with the end of communism
well of course but it's still nice to see the trends and growth of religions.

Oh yeah, makes sense now.
Thanks for your insight.
I see that humanity will unite in the knowledge that there is only One God.
It will be that realisation that becomes a foundation to a lasting peace and prosperity for all of humanity.
I also see. This will expand to a universal realisation.

I don't take much stock in such things. The rate of change on this planet is accelerating. Who knows what may happen, and more quickly that we think.

the only way there will ever be one religion under one god is when there is only one person left on the planet....

Interesting the article neglects to mention the need to watch sodium amounts.
It might take that the way we are going. There are prophecies that do say a substantial amount of people may not see the kingdom come on earth, as it is already in heaven.

Or when everyone realizes there is only one God and decides to be the member of the one religion of God.
Of course that seems impossible now, but the future is not now.
Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s because non-religious people tend to breed less as well
Yes, I've been following this trend with interest. It neglects health in a few ways. But I think that will change.
