NEW PEW STUDY: By 2035, Babies born to Muslims will outnumber Christian births

Original article published in the PEW on 04/05/2017

For years, more babies were born to Christian women than to any other religious group but by 2035, PEW reports, Muslim women are expected to “modestly exceed” newborn births.

According to Pew:

Globally, the relatively young population and high fertility rates of Muslims lead to a projection that between 2030 and 2035, there will be slightly more babies born to Muslims (225 million) than to Christians (224 million), even though the total Christian population will still be larger. By the 2055 to 2060 period, the birth gap between the two groups is expected to approach 6 million (232 million births among Muslims vs. 226 million births among Christians).

By 2055 to 2060, just 9% of all babies will be born to religiously unaffiliated women, while more than seven-in-ten will be born to either Muslims (36%) or Christians (35%).
