Trends

Just like society, many religions are constantly changing. People interpret the religious precepts differently and apply them to their personal lives. There is certainly also a link between technology and belief. Technological developments have greatly increased individualization. Because of this people feel more the need to live in a religious community and faith gets a separate place instead of a major central role in someone's life.

Religion remains an important phenomenon in our society. Just over 30% of the world is Christian, 23% is Muslim and 15% is Hindu. Only 14% of the world's population indicates that they are not religious. Of the religions, Islam is the fastest growing religious group in the world. It is expected that there will be 70% more Muslims on the planet by 2060. In second and third place come the Christians with an expected growth of 34% and the Hindus with 27%. In an increasingly complex world, we are increasingly giving individual meaning to faith. Everyone believes in his / her own way.
