Home›Documentaries›TraditionBrowse ByTraditionThis page groups screen works by the religion that produced them. Wikipedia notes that "other religious traditions such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Islam, Sikhism and Jainism also create and maintain hagiographical texts" of their own. Browsing by tradition lets a visitor read every work from one religion together.FactsTraditionSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsDirectoryCategoryWell-attestedScreen Works 1TraditionFilter Results44 entriesAdherents Today MaximumAll900 (1)2489 (1)6000 (1)121,962 (1)5,000,000 (2)17,000,000 (1)1,200,000,000 (1)2,300,000,000 (1)Adherents Today MinimumAll900 (1)2489 (1)6000 (1)111,691 (1)152,958 (1)4,000,000 (1)5,000,000 (1)17,000,000 (1)1,200,000,000 (1)2,300,000,000 (1)Basis of the Membership FigureAllChurch-Reported Rolls (5)Independent Survey (7)National Census (3)Scholarly or Demographic Estimate (8)Era of Decline End YearAll100 (1)400 (1)500 (1)550 (1)600 (1)700 (1)1413 (1)1976 (2)Era of Decline Start YearAll100 BCE (1)300 (3)380 (2)651 (1)1387 (1)1966 (2)Era of Modern Revival End YearAll1471 (1)1800 (1)1992 (1)Era of Modern Revival Start YearAll1463 (1)1781 (1)1911 (1)Establishment StatusAllDisestablished (1)Established (1)No Establishment (1)Varies by Province (2)How the Expectation Is EnforcedAllCodified Obligation With Consequences (1)Customary Norm (6)Obligation to Support, No Set Rate (1)Preached Expectation, Not Enforced (1)Membership Figure As OfAll1919-03-01 (1)1968-01-01 (1)1969-12-31 (1)2001-01-01 (1)2004-01-01 (2)2007-01-01 (1)2010-01-01 (4)2011-01-01 (3)2011-12-19 (1)2012-01-01 (2)2012-12-18 (1)2013-01-01 (1)2015-01-01 (2)2016-01-01 (1)2017-01-01 (1)2018-01-01 (2)2020-01-01 (3)2021-01-01 (2)2021-05-12 (1)2022-01-01 (1)2023-01-01 (1)2024-01-01 (3)2026-08-13 (1)Origin Period End YearAll3000 BCE (2)1046 BCE (1)600 BCE (1)500 BCE (2)479 BCE (1)400 BCE (1)300 BCE (1)100 BCE (1)50 (1)106 (1)200 (1)300 (1)1387 (1)1781 (1)1800 (1)1863 (1)1895 (1)1933 (1)1935 (1)1961 (1)1966 (1)1980 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll3500 BCE (1)3300 BCE (1)1600 BCE (1)1500 BCE (2)900 BCE (1)750 BCE (1)600 BCE (2)551 BCE (1)500 BCE (1)450 BCE (1)400 BCE (1)1 (1)30 (1)100 (1)500 (1)1400 (1)1700 (1)1717 (1)1830 (1)1844 (2)1861 (1)1880 (1)1920 (1)1930 (1)1933 (1)1961 (1)1966 (1)1970 (1)Position on MarriageAllMarriage is held to be monogamous, with remarriage after divorce sanctioned under specified conditions (1)Position on SexualityAllSame-sex marriage is performed and LGBT clergy are ordained on equal terms with heterosexual clergy (1)Same-sex orientation or practice is held to bar full membership or participation (1)Same-sex sexual relationships are held contrary to teaching; LGBT individuals are welcomed as members but not ordained, and same-sex unions are not blessed (1)The body holds no single settled position; the question is actively and openly contested within it (2)Practice StatusAllClosed ceremonial knowledge, described but not reproduced (1)Discontinued as a state religion (4)Living, and in active revival (1)Living, and practised in varied local forms (10)Partly restricted: some elements are closed to outsiders (4)Standard Rate ExpectedAllNineteen percent.
