Sorry, no. You inflate this percentage by framing the question in a aristotelean/binary form. Had you asked if
- a singular God as "commonly" described in Talmud, Bible, Quran and similar books
- a wheel of life and reincarnation
- nature-close spirits
- no supernatural creatures at all existed,

that percentage would be 25% as best guess. Splitting that into the particular form of God into the different strains inside the larger fractions of muslim and christianity, you arrive at much lower levels.

>Independently on which side someone stands, the intellectual mind of humankind always strived to understand its purpose, its origin and the philosophical questions about eternity and God and how man is held responsible for their actions.
>And if someone believes in God or not, the question will always remain, how did everything begin? The famous "big bang" is not an answer because in itself it would only be a specific point in time, and not the beginning of time or matter itself. As long as someone is seeking and asking these question, I have more respect for that person than for someone who just dismisses everything, and just makes jokes about it for the lack of intellectual ability. It's like the kids that were giggling in school when the teacher discussed the biological differences between man and woman, only they are much older now and it does not seem to be so funny anymore.

IMO one should try to find the [current] borders of science/reasoning and decide if one wants to enter the regions of belief or not. Discussing matters better left in the area of belief is not really a good idea, as there is no commmon basis.
