Religion in Australia
Hugh Mackay (he's getting a good run today!) noted in an article in the Sydney Morning Herald today (22 Dec 2001, News review, p. 14) that there are 200,000 Muslims, 80,000 Jews and 13,000,000 Christians in Australia. I chased up the census details. See the relevant page in Australia Now from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The 1996 census showed major religious groupings as: 27% Catholic, 22% Anglican, 16% no religion, 9% not stated, 7.5% Uniting Church, and so on. Muslims are the largest non-Christian community at 1.1%, and Jews at 0.4%.
