Hey everyone!
I'm into number crunching, data, and cool visuals. If you like my stuff, support my channel, it can buy another cup of coffee for me and a cookie for my baby girl, Eva.

I missed this melancholic music! Glad you’re back.

It is so good to see you back! I get excited each time you post a video. Hoping everything is going wonderfully for you. ✨

That Islam boom from 1985 to 2000 is CRAZY 😮

[PaikarEghazal]

Islam is one religion so don't divide it in shia and sunni.. As Both believe in "La ilaaha Illallah mohammadur rasullah saw."-"There is no God but Allah, Muhammad is the messenger of Allah".

Would have been interesting if you had also added atheism/agnosticism there.

[roskoced]

Always great to get a new video and hear this iconic music again! 💖 I see you didn't include atheists on purpose, but are these numbers representing actively practicing / believing followers of each religion? Or do they include people who still identify as followers of a religion out of habit for familial or cultural reasons but are non-practicing / agnostic?

Good to see you back. How are you doing? I graduated since the last time you uploaded lol.

We all know why the graph started rising for Hinduism after 2014 🙂🙂🙂

[roberthughes]

If you are going to separate Christians, Muslims, Buddhists and Jews into different sects then you should do likewise for Hindus.

[Faraz-cse]

Well the growth rate of atheist and agnostic are off the charts especially since people started socialising online via internet.

Sometimes even I feel agnostic.

Hey there, great to see you back! What data was used for this? The PEW research stats seem quite different.

End of 90's internet spreads around the world, NORMAL PEOPLE choose the right thing after they know the difference in the amount of information they receive

[RagerJay]

The spinning clock doesn't match the changing of the year and it drives my OCD nuts 😂

[sonofagun]

This data isn't making sense to me. Can someone help explain it how the Jewish numbers went up during the holocaust?

This is also suggesting that Hinduism was a more populous religion than Islam in the 1930-1940s, yet every historical reference states this is false.

Maybe I'm not understanding the numbers correctly, but are they representative of worldwide followers?

I still love the little owl character. It's so cute
