*Folk religions include followers of African traditional religions, Chinese folk religions, Native American religions and Australian aboriginal religions.
**The “other religions” category includes Bahai’s, Jains, Sikhs, Shintoists, Taoists, followers of Tenrikyo, Wiccans, Zoroastrians and many other faiths. Population estimates of 9,999 persons or less are identified as “<10,000.” All other counts are rounded to the nearest 10,000. Percentages are calculated from unrounded numbers. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. Estimated 2010 total population figures are based primarily on the 2010 revision of the United Nations World Population Prospects data. The United Nations provided the Pew Forum with special estimates for Sudan and the new nation of South Sudan. The population estimate for Kosovo is based on the figure from the World Religion Database, which is deducted from the U.N.’s Serbia estimate.

DEMOCRACIA E CULTURA RELIGIOSA
Interessante seria investigar os países onde a estimativa (o Pew Research Center só tem dados de 2010, ao que parece) percent that is unaffiliated (a qualquer religião, incluindo – além de cristianismo, islamismo, hinduísmo, budismo e judaísmo – folk religions: seguidores de african traditional religions, chinese folk religions, native american religions and australian aboriginal religions e, inclusive, outras religiões menores, tipo: Bahai’s, Jains, Sikhs, Shintoists, Taoists, seguidores de Tenrikyo, Wiccans, Zoroastrians e muitas outras fés) ultrapassa 20%. Aí temos dois grupos:
a) países onde a religião ainda é proibida ou coibida severamente (ou foi proibida ou coibida recentemente, ou seja, no século 20); e
b) os demais países. Na lista ‘b’ (dos demais países), temos mais democracias plenas (e aceitáveis) e nenhuma ditadura (se considerarmos que Hong Kong, embora hoje subordinado à China, era protetorado britânico).
Em ordem alfabética (o primeiro número indica o lugar na lista):
10 – Alemanha 24,7%
11 – Austrália 24,2%
06 – Bélgica 29,0%
12 – Canadá 23,7%
07 – França 28,0%
03 – Holanda 42,1%
02 – Hong Kong 56,1%
01 – Japão 57,0%
09 – Luxemburgo 26,8%
05 – Nova Zelândia 36,6%
13 – Reino Unido 21,3%
08 – Suécia 27,0%
04 – Uruguai 40,7%
