Number of christians in Russia

Here is the corresponding information of CIA Factbook

Russian Orthodox 15-20%, Muslim 10-15%, other Christian 2% (2006 est.) note: estimates are of practicing worshipers; Russia has large populations of non-practicing believers and non-believers, a legacy of over seven decades of Soviet rule

CIA FB

Here is the information of the US State Department, which is close to Russian sources:

Available information suggested approximately 70 percent of the residents considered themselves Russian Orthodox Christians, although the vast majority were not regular churchgoers. There were an estimated fourteen to twenty-three million Muslims, constituting approximately 14 percent of the population and forming the largest religious minority. The majority of Muslims lived in the Volga-Urals region--which included Tatarstan and Bashkortostan--and the North Caucasus, although Moscow, St. Petersburg, and parts of Siberia had notable Muslim populations as well. The Muslim communities in the Volga-Urals region and the North Caucasus are culturally and in some cases theologically distinct from one another and therefore must be considered separate communities.

CIA experts seem to be less accurate here (using the Russian sources). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ans-mo (talk • contribs) 15:16, 1 November 2007 (UTC) Ans-mo 15:48, 1 November 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Mormonism Title

This comment was left in the Mormonism section: "Please do not change section title, which was chosen explicitly to include so-called "Russian Mormonism".", which, a) should be a matter for the Talk page, b) is a misnomer, because the groups have no connection, and c) it isn't even clear that the so-called "Russian Mormons" are a restorationist group, so it may be a miscategorization. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.33.36.18 (talk) 10:36, 4 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
