Yes , the pie chart shows that . But in terms of religions , Christianity comes first followed by Islam followed by Hinduism , then Buddhism and so on .

Three Hindu majority countries according to the report- India, Nepal and Mauritius

The survey said Hinduism is not the third majority one

Considering the fact that Hinduism doesnot have a conversion spree like abrahamic religions , it is commendable that we are 15% of world population.

You are ignoring ISKCON.

Its a matter of interpretation.

Well,they follow Vaishnavism and have followers all around the world.They've been taking Western converts since the early 1930s.In India they are not very popular though.

what is your issue with hinduism ?

The survey says that Atheists are the third largest group but Hinduism is the third largest religion. Atheism is no religion.Understand the difference between group and religion.

Common sense even 12 year old would understand.

How does every religion grows.Through its followers.
