Le sentiment religieux et la pratique religieuse en Europe d’après l’enquête EVS de 2017
The survey shows large variations within Europe. People who say they believe in God almost always outnumber those who consider themselves religious. In general, the survey confirms the disconnection between belief and practice. Indeed, the number of people attending a religious service at least once a week is much lower than the number of people who consider themselves religious.
The country with the fewest people who consider themselves religious is Sweden, while Georgia has the most. The same applies to belief in God. On the other hand, Denmark has the lowest weekly attendance at a religious service and Poland has the highest.
