United Kingdom[edit]

the map is incorrect. only in england is there a state church when it comes to the uk.

(This issue appears to have been corrected in the image in the main article (only England is blue), but not in the full-size image where the whole of Great Britain remains blue. - 26 June 2009)


the monarch of the united kingdom has to be protestant, i think that's a pretty good endorsement of state religion there for the entire uk 86.162.41.237 (talk) 18:26, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cyprus[edit]

Please change this coloring as Cyprus definitely has no state religion. I defy someone to try and find a source that says it has a state religion. Eugene-elgato (talk) 15:56, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Armenia[edit]

Armenia is a Christian state...Armenia was the first country on earth to officially become a Christian state. Make it right..Tiko310 (talk) 08:29, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So is France, Germany etc. even if it was the first, so what? Please somehow check the Armenian constitution if Christianity is the official state religion and stop banging on about it, I think we get the message that a tiny number of Christians in this world come from Armenia, and that it was the first to adopt.--81.154.216.212 (talk) 19:47, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Argentina[edit]

Argentina has no state religion. The constitution says the state has to help economically the catholic church because it makes a lot of efficient charity. Andrés Baldrich (talk) 01:22, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

see Argentina.gov Andrés Baldrich (talk) 01:29, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The constitution explicitly says it supports only one religion. How is that not the state religion? "A state religion is a religion or creed officially endorsed by a sovereign state." 2800:2147:F400:6A7:5573:9789:F1A0:29C4 (talk) 16:49, 16 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Argentina names and endorses the Roman Catholic church in the constitution I don't understand how that do not count as a state religion
Country's like Norway and most monarchys are a little difference as the religion is enforced by the monarch and not the people
