England Religion

 

The religions of a country define, to a large extent, the culture thereof. They tell a story of its past and give a certain degree of information about its current society.

In England, Christianity remains the most practiced religion today, despite its ancient history of paganism. Paganism refers to religious traditions that are characterised by the belief in multiple gods rather than one main God and Creator. These religions include Celtic polytheism, Norse paganism, Roman polytheism, and so on. They were introduced by the Anglo-Saxons, who had their origins in ancient Germanic tribes

The main religions that can be identified in England today are:

1. Christianity
2. Islam
3. Judaism

4. Hinduism
5. Sikhism
6. Buddhism
7. The Bahá'í Faith
