Every tradition's own claim, its own numbers, side by side, cited. No side is taken; every side is shown. Figures are DATA. Quoted texts are SCRIPTURE or TRADITION. Any reading of the numbers as prophecy is SPECULATION and is labeled on the card that makes it.
One dataset, every tradition, filterable by targeted tradition. DOCUMENTED DEATHS is a sourced figure or a sourced range; where sources conflict, each figure is shown with the body that published it and the count is marked contested. Two traditions in this table — Yazidism and the Bahá'í Faith — are not among the seven filter tags on this surface. They are named in full in their rows rather than folded into a category that does not fit them.
Region markers in ghost. Locations are indicative of the region named in the row.

The figures differ by an order of magnitude because the counting differs. Advocacy monitors count victims identified as Christian across all incident types. ACLED-based and UN counts record conflict deaths by event, without a religious attribution, and include Muslim victims of the same actors. No body has issued a genocide determination.
