Why don't all you muslims unite and ask for your 2 Eids to be listed in the holiday section and explain that Ramadan isn't a holiday. Maybe then they'll get rid of this section and give you two in place of it.

I noticed that the other day too- there should be one category for each Eid simply to be fair as other faiths have a category for each of their celebrations
oh well, we have managed : )
and the stats are accurate, based on many many varying sources: Islam is the second largest faith.

When its listed as 2 billion Christians that is not solely ''Christians'' it includes Protestants, Catholics, Pentecostal, Later day Saints, Anglican, Jehovah's witnesses, Quakers, AIC's, SDA's, AOG's and Eastern Orthodox.
