your definition of "one of the largest"?

Top 5%? 10%? 20%?

Responses:

by total population you might make top 50, and if you want to argue that there are 200ish countries in the world, that could make you - mafic Jun 4, 10:50 11

  - Oh, I have no doubt he meant population, not land mass. -- nm - Jim Jun 4, 10:55 3
    - Are you calling us fat? -- nm - Muslim Americans Jun 4, 10:56 2
      - it's just the way that outfit makes you look -- nm - 'lia Jun 4, 11:00 1
        
        No, no. It's not the jeans that make the ass look fat, it's the fat ass that makes the ass look fat. -- nm - Stephen Jun 4, 11:01
  - This is so not avoiding the arguement. Are you trying to take away my bacon? (nm) - musubi Jun 4, 10:54
  - ah, well that rules out the landmass thing, I suppose. -- nm - mafic Jun 4, 10:53
- yeah. estimated at around 6mil mulsims, which would make us around the 34th largest muslim populations. -- nm - tRuMaN Jun 4, 10:52 1
  - thats alot of terrorists! -- nm - Beaker Jun 4, 10:52
- That starts getting a bit Lucasian/Parsec-like, though :) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 4, 10:51 1
  - Wait, are you saying that Muslims believe in midi-chlorians? Oh hells no. (nm) - musubi Jun 4, 10:52
The wiki page (i'll link again) shows us at 0.6% of the population being Muslim. - Stephen Jun 4, 10:50 6
- Yeah...I saw the link, which doesn't answer my question. - Jim Jun 4, 10:54 3
  - So let me get this straight, I can eat 17% of my bacon without fear of reprisal? (nm) - musubi Jun 4, 10:56 2
    - sure ya are - baconcentric agnostic -- nm - 'lia Jun 4, 10:59
    - Yes moose, for the love of God, Allah, and he who shall not be named, you may eat all the bacon you like! - Stephen Jun 4, 10:58
- He was clearly not talking about on a percentage basis. -- nm - TFox Jun 4, 10:51 1
  - The wiki page clearly stays 1.8 million americans are Muslim. - Beryllium Jun 4, 10:53
according to wiki, 52. Maybe higher, but certainly not in the top 30 -- (link) - Roger More Jun 4, 10:50
