Answer:
The most widely practiced religion in Latin America is Catholicism.
Explanation:
Religion in Latin America is mostly Christian, mainly Catholic, but Protestantism is expanding in recent years. In general, religion is an important cultural factor in various Latin American countries.
According to a study published in 2018, the countries where more than 50% of its population declare themselves Catholic are Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela. In Chile and Uruguay, however, a marked process of secularization is evident as the percentage of people who declare themselves atheist, agnostic or without religion reaches approximately 40%, rivaling the portion that is identified as Catholic. At the same time, countries where less than 50% are Catholics, but more than 40% declare themselves as Protestant are Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua.
In general, high levels of religious participation are more common in Central America. There is a greater tendency for Protestants, compared to Catholics, to pray daily, attend religious services at least once a week and consider religion to be very important in their lives. Argentina, Chile and Uruguay are the three countries in the region where there is the lowest religious practice, the lowest percentage that consider religion very important, those who pray less, read the Bible or other religious texts or attend religious services. In addition, they are the countries where a lower percentage donates their income to the church and those that least adhere to the practice of fasting during sacred periods.
