Home›Feature & Dramatized Films›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 Results20 entriesAdherents Today MaximumAll13,000 (1)121,962 (1)14,800,000 (1)30,000,000 (1)324,000,000 (1)1,200,000,000 (1)2,000,000,000 (1)2,300,000,000 (1)Adherents Today MinimumAll13,000 (1)111,691 (1)14,800,000 (1)25,000,000 (1)324,000,000 (1)1,200,000,000 (1)2,000,000,000 (1)2,300,000,000 (1)Basis of the Membership FigureAllChurch-Reported Rolls (2)Independent Survey (9)National Census (2)Scholarly or Demographic Estimate (5)Era of Decline End YearAll500 (1)529 (1)1600 (1)1976 (2)Era of Decline Start YearAll300 (1)380 (1)651 (1)1521 (1)1966 (2)Establishment StatusAllDeclared Not Established (1)Disestablished (3)Established (1)Varies by Province (4)How the Expectation Is EnforcedAllCodified Obligation With Consequences (1)Customary Norm (7)Membership Figure As OfAll1990-01-01 (1)2001-01-01 (1)2001-03-01 (1)2004-01-01 (1)2008-01-01 (1)2010-01-01 (5)2011-01-27 (1)2011-03-01 (1)2011-12-19 (1)2012-01-01 (1)2012-12-18 (2)2013-01-01 (1)2014-01-01 (1)2015-01-01 (1)2016-01-01 (1)2016-12-31 (1)2017-01-01 (1)2018-01-01 (2)2020-01-01 (5)2021-05-12 (1)2022-01-01 (1)Origin Period End YearAll1046 BCE (1)1000 BCE (1)700 BCE (1)600 BCE (1)500 BCE (1)479 BCE (1)400 BCE (2)50 (1)200 (1)632 (1)712 (1)1300 (1)1428 (1)1708 (1)1800 (1)1850 (1)1904 (1)1954 (1)Origin Period Start YearAll2000 BCE (1)1600 BCE (1)1500 BCE (2)1400 BCE (1)1000 BCE (1)586 BCE (1)551 BCE (1)500 BCE (1)300 BCE (1)30 (1)100 (1)610 (1)1325 (1)1499 (1)1700 (1)1800 (1)1904 (1)1946 (1)Position on MarriageAllMarriage is held to be monogamous, with remarriage after divorce sanctioned under specified conditions (1)Marriage may licitly be polygynous (1)Position on SexualityAllSame-sex orientation or practice is held to bar full membership or participation (2)The body holds no single settled position; the question is actively and openly contested within it (2)Position on UsuryAllInterest is permitted but bound by ethical constraints against exploiting the poor (1)Interest of any kind on a loan is forbidden (1)Practice StatusAllDiscontinued as a state religion (2)Living, and practised in varied local forms (7)Partly restricted: some elements are closed to outsiders (9)Standard Rate ExpectedAllTen percent.
