buddhists 8%, with more than 200,000 monks and nuns. this value is seen as extremely low because there are more than 16,000 buddhist temples that do not maintain traditional congregations. 

taoists, unknown as a percentage, there are more than 25,000 taoist monks and nuns at more than 1,500 temples. taoist belief is often intertwined with both buddhism and traditional folk religions. 

muslims, 1.4%, with more than 45,000 imams. other estimates are much higher. 

protestant christians, 1.2% with official churches. it is estimated that another 2.5% of the population is a protestant christian worshipping through an unofficial house church. 

catholic christians, 6% with official churches, and the vatican claims up to another 10% who are catholics attending catholic services at underground churches. 

it should be noted, however, that statistics relating to buddhism and religious taoism are to some degree incomparable with statistics for islam and christianity. this is due to the traditional chinese belief system which blends confucianism, buddhism, and taoism, so that a person who follows a traditional belief system would not necessarily identify him- or herself as either buddhist or taoist, despite regularly attending buddhist or taoist places of worship.

most people report no organized religious affiliation; however, belief in folk traditions and non-religious spiritual beliefs, such as ancestor worship and feng shui, along with informal ties to local temples and unofficial house churches is in the hundreds of millions. nepal is the only official hindu state in the world due to this, the majority of the population in nepal practice the hindu religion (86% of the population), whilst the remaining religions are represented by buddhists (8%), muslims (4%) and ‘other’ (2%).

large tribes and communities of indigenous origins, are also closely linked to the earliest synthesis and formation of hindu civilization. peoples of east asian roots living in the states of north eastern india and nepal were also a part of the earliest hindu civilization. the hindu new year is also celebrated in nepal in the month of april, usually falling on the 14th of the month. nepal is the only hindu country where the hindu calendar, known as bikrama sambat, is the official calendar. 

since the roots of hinduism was spread in nepal for many centruries still hindust are at a higher level here. very old temples like pasupathinath etc., shows the prevance of hindust here for ages. 

buddism was originated from india only and later spread to nepal and other countries, but in nepal it is not very much. there are the reasons for nepal having high percentage of hindus- it can't be proven scientifically, it can't be proven by photo, no one has seen no god. Ancient cultures who supposedly were smarter than us believed in other gods , several gods. faith and religion are closely related to another, but there are many differences between them. one of those differences is how they are carried out. religion is more strict and structured than faith is. an example is christianity. this is a If it is merely a MYTH to you, then WHY would it matter?   

  

  

As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.   

MARANATHA! Come, Lord Jesus, COME! evil doesn't really exist. it's a religious concept. 
 
the potential to do bad stuff though... that exists both within and outside. the people of bastar belonged to different communities such as maria and muria gonds, dhurwas, bhatras and halbas. though they spoke different languages they shared common customs and beliefs. the people of bastar believed that the earth was sacred and made offerings during agricultural festivals. in addition to the earth, they respected the spirits of the river, the forest and the mountain. the boundaries of each village was well marked and the people looked after all the natural resources within that boundary. if people from one village wanted to take some wood from the forests of another village, they paid a small fee called devsari, dand or man in exchange. some villages protected their forests by engaging watchmen and each household had to contribute some grain to pay them. every year a big meeting is organised, where the headmen of villages meet and discuss issues of concern, including forests. I'm seriously looking at covenanting for life to look after and be looked after a faith-based international communal fellowship of Bible-believing people. They live like this to follow the original Way that the first believers in the Son of God lived instead of what became of this Way as it was replaced by elements of other religions and cultures. They only consider marrying the other people in the group who have also covenanted never to leave nor forsake each other the way the Son of God implemented when He told His Disciples He would never leave nor forsake them and to Love each other as He had Loved them.

twelvetribes dot org well.........................allah and god are the same haven't you noticed that hunting and fishing is something that transcends politics and religion and everything? even vp cheney enjoys hunting, and bagging an occassional lawyer. people from all walks of life enjoy hunting and fishing, republicans, democrats, mormons, catholics, baptists, you name it. when you think about all the wars that are fought over religion or politics and the number of people who are killed in the name of religion or politics i sometimes think we should have a religion of hunting where we simply hunt and enjoy life and let everybody else do the the same. nothing to fight over or kill each other over.
