Of course even if an atheist would want to know if and where he can find other people with the same beliefs.

A survey was conducted in Australia in which it was attempted to determine which were the most followed religions. The numbers do not show anything spectacular or startling.

Christianity is by far the biggest faith in Australia with 64% or nearly two thirds saying they are Christian. Of that Roman Catholics make up 25.8% of the population. the Anglican faith followed in at 18.7%. Members of other Christian denominations account for a total of 19.4% of the population.

Other religions were also recorded. A total of 2.1% of the population claimed to follow Buddhism. Islam and Judaism came in at 1.7% and 0.4% respectively.
