It is challenging to provide an exact number of religions in the world because the classification of belief systems can vary, and new religious movements may emerge. Additionally, within broader categories, there can be numerous denominations, sects, and branches.
However, some of the major world religions, each with significant followings, include:
Christianity
Islam
Hinduism
Buddhism
Sikhism
Judaism
Bahá’à Faith
Jainism
Shinto
Taoism
Apart from these major world religions, there are numerous indigenous and folk religions, as well as a variety of new and emerging spiritual movements. Furthermore, many people identify with various forms of spirituality that may not be organized into specific religious traditions.
As of my last knowledge update in January 2022, there is no universally agreed-upon count of religions, and the number can change over time as new belief systems emerge or existing ones evolve. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it’s advisable to refer to scholarly sources or organizations that specialize in the study of religion.
