Although Australians are predominantly Christian (about 64% of the population), Australia has no official state religion. Instead, the Australian Government believes in encouraging mutual respect, understanding and tolerance among different religions.

With its diverse, multicultural population and immigrant history, Australia is a melting pot of religions and faiths. All of the major global faiths are represented in Australia, and many of the lesser-recognised ones as well.
