about 6.5 Billion... I don't know the actual percentages but over half follow Islam... the next largest would be Catholicism followed closely by Christianity.

I pretty much agree with you. An atheist is sure that God does not exist, and an agnostic isn't willing to commit either way. (Sort of like the dyslexic agnostic who developed insomnia. He kept lying awake at night wondering if there really is a Dog...).

There's lots of atheists and "no religious preference" members of the military.  \n\n""About 0.1 percent of all American military personnel officially declare themselves to be atheists.\n\nThat doesn't mean, however, that all service members belong to a particular religious denomination. About 27 percent do not volunteer to have a specific religious preference inscribed on their dog tags""

Highly educated people have a higher rate of atheism.

Not really.  Being an atheist is not simply being "unreligious."  Being an atheist means you believe in NO GOD whatsoever.  I believe in God but am not religious.  Therefor, I am not an atheist.
