Finland

Finland is classified incorrectly. "Jurisdictions that give various degrees of recognition in their constitutions to Lutheranism without establishing it as the state religion" might apply to Sweden, but not to Finland. Statistics Finland (Tilastokeskus), the national statistical institution in Finland, classsifies both the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland and the Orthodox Church of Finland as state churches. https://stat.fi/meta/kas/valtionkirkko.html . The churches themselves prefer to use the term "kansankirkko" (people's church) and therefore deny being state churches, but this is only semantics. Legally they have a position as state churches, state for instance collect tax for them (kirkollisvero, clerical tax). In state owned schools there is obligatory religion classes to the members of these churches. The conscripts who are members of a state church are obligated to swear a military oath to a military priest, part of the church but working in the army. Etc. Other religions have some rights, too, but they don't have an official position except that they are in the register of religious communities. --80.221.248.199 (talk) 09:13, 23 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Colorblind Accessibility

The color of Roman Catholicism in the chart is near-white, to a point I'm unable to distinguish between it and other countries. Can it be changed to improve colorblind accessibility?

This also applies to Hebrew Wikipedia's same chart, I'll create a talk section there later. RatherQueerDebator (talk) 05:55, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

World State Religion

To more accurate classify modern state religion, it can be classified as

Christianity
- Non-denominational Christianity
- Protestantism
- Roman Catholicism
- Eastern Orthodoxy
Islam
- Non-denominational Islam
- Sunni Islam
- Shia Islam
Buddhism
Secularism
Atheism
State theism

It is obviously difference between a secular state and an atheism state.

Indonesia, is an example of state theism without state religion, the country official religion is to believe "the one and almighty God" or explicit recognition of "God Exists".
