What is the religion of Uruguay?

Answer 1

Uruguay is in South America, a continent which is predominantly Catholic, although other religions, particularly evangelical Protestantism, have also established themselves there.

Uruguay is a Latin American country. It keeps no religious statistics. In an independent survey, about half of the people were Roman Catholic. A quarter of the population were Pentecostals, Protestants, and other Christians. There were a few in other religions but most of the rest had no religion. (Sometimes such surveys include Pentecostals with other Protestants, sometimes they separate them. In Latin America Pentecostals usually outnumber other Protestants by about a 4 to 1 ratio.)

Answer 2

Uruguay is a secular country so it doesn't have an official religion.

About 66% of the people are Roman Catholic. All the public schools in Uruguay are secular and don't teach about any religion in particular. However, there are many private Catholic schools and some Jewish schools and universities in Uruguay.

Answer 3

Uruguay is South America's most secular country. It has no official religion and church and state are separate. Religious freedom is guaranteed. Sixty-six percent of Uruguayans are Roman Catholics. Most Uruguayans baptize their children and marry in churches but less than half attend church on a regular basis. There is a small Jewish community in Montevideo (about 1% of the population) as well as several evangelical Protestant groups (about 2%). Macumba and Umbanda, religions of Afro-Brazilian origin, are the currently fastest-growing religions in Uruguay.
