It is estimated that between 40 and 50 percent of Zimbabweans belong to mainstream of Christian denominations such as the Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Methodist Churches; however, over the years a variety of indigenous churches and groups have emerged from these denominations.Evangelical denominations, primarily Pentecostal churches and apostolic groups, were the fastest growing group as of 2007. While the country is overwhelmingly Christian, the majority of the population continues to believe in indigenous religions as well. Religious leaders also reported an increase in adherence to traditional religion and healers. Also, 1% of the population practices Islam. The remainder of the population includes practitioners of Greek Orthodoxy, Judaism, and traditional indigenous religions.There are also small numbers of Hindus, Buddhists, Baha'is and atheists.
