Wow! thank you that is amazing, so your saying there is only 24 people that believe in that??

They have an incredibly high reverence for all life. No killing bugs- I'm serious. They sweep the area in front of their feet to prevent it...

That's about all i know.

How much do you want to know?

Jain comes from the Sanskrit word "Jo", which means "to conquer". Jains are followers of Jinas or tankardsARassoc means "conquerors"), currently there are 24 of them in this life cycle, the last one being Mahavira, though there will be more.

If you want to learn more go to these websites: http://www.religioustolerance.org/jainism.htm http://www.jainism.org

Edit: No I did not say that. There is a difference between a Jain and a Jina. A Jain is a follower of the Jinas (note the extra "a"). Jinas are also refer ed to as Tirthankaras. They are gurus (teachers who are looked upto) who attained enlightenment, like Buddha.

There are still people who believe in it. About 4.2 million followers, ranking it 14th largest religion in the world, according to adherents.com. Most are in India though my family lives abroad.
