 Adherents.com: Largest Religious Bodies
This list is only an attempt to list religious bodies, that is, organizations which have a recognized, central leadership or convention, and a body of individual members or adherents.
Some religious bodies are mostly regional but are not part of a broader formal global communion representing their movement precisely: the great majority of their branches are located in a limited region, and there are no separate "sister churches" in other parts of the world.
These are religious bodies in which at least 30% of their world membership live outside the "core country" (country with the largest number of members).

 Major Religions Ranked by Size
This list is based primarily on the degree of doctrinal/theological similarity among all the various sub-groups which belong to these classifications, and to a lesser extent based on diversity in practice, ritual and organization.
Contemporary sociolgists and religious leaders generally consider pan-denominational classifications based not on historical denominational divisions but on current theological positions, organizational alignments, etc. to be more relevant.
As is typical with a religious group made up primarily of converts, Baha'is who drift from active participation in the movement are less likely to retain nominal identification with the religion -- because it was not the religion of their parents or the majority religion of the surrounding culture.

I have seen some "pornographic" movies that are quite sort of light and free and joyful and where no one is trying to dominate, but just have some fun.
During the couple of TM training classes I had taken they explained that although the lotus position was traditionally used for meditation and was given lots of mystic significance, the practical aspect of it was to place the body in a balanced position.

It is important to realize that out of the tens of thousands of new religious groups worldwide, only a very few meet these criteria.

 Kundalini Gateway: Kundalini Mailing List Archives 1996.
It is apparent that when it comes to discussion of kundalini, especially from a traditional perspective, that most of the individuals in this group, including me, are nowhere as well versed in these disciplines as you are neither theoretically nor in practical experience of controlled kundalini activation.
Keep in mind that it is only a belief system that is being presented on both sides and that each side has the right to hold their separate individual beliefs, both are fully valid to each side, and both are expressions of personal realities to the individuals in question.
A point in question would be various religious leaders in our times that have been credited with the power to perform so called miracles by their followers.

 Catholic Leaders (Lay & Religious)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
religious motivation first, worrying much less about a survival that is temporary at the best, and worrying hardly at all about progress and development and conquest and our precious "standard of living." The important thing will be the cultivation of an objectively worthy and well-mannered handling of the environment, considered as God's work and property.
And for the Christian, a list of this kind will only be a preliminary, of relatively small account.
This is not simply an arbitrary and tendentious "religious" affirmation which in some way or other robs being of autonomy and dignity.

Ankara has become Israel's main regional ally since the two countries signed a military cooperation agreement in 1996, but it also maintains close ties with the Palestinians whose demands for statehood it supports.

 Interfaith "Sign On" Statement on Terrorism
We, American religious leaders, share the broken hearts of our fellow citizens.
The terrorists have offered us a stark view of the world they would create, where the remedy to every human grievance and injustice is a resort to the random and cowardly violence of revenge – even against the most innocent.
Having taken thousands of our lives, attacked our national symbols, forced our political leaders to flee their chambers of governance, disrupted our work and families, and struck fear into the hearts of our children, the terrorists must feel victorious.
