A society for atheists, rationalists, secularists and humanists
I was speaking to Craig at the Christian Union lunch bar yesterday who claimed there was significantly less than a few million people in the world that called themselves atheist.
I ended up looking up coming over some statistics will looking for some statistics on Humanism which make for interesting reading. Adherents.com which seems to be the de facto standard for religious stats put the figure at "200 to 240 million."
World Almanac put the number at 205 million. I couldn't find the page on Encyclopaedia Britannica but depending on what figures you believe thet put the number somewhere between 40 and 150 million.
Meanwhile Landover Baptist Church puts the number at 300 ;).
