Religious beliefs in Ireland


Christianity is the major religion in Ireland and the country has the highest percentage of regular church goers in Western Europe. Ninety two percent of the Republic's populace is Roman Catholic while 3% identify themselves as Protestant, and the remainder claim no religious beliefs, or belong to the small communities of believers such as Muslims, Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Orthodox.

Religious tolerance greatly valued and discrimination based on religion is almost non-existent.
