Where do you fit into the latest census results? Have you changed your religious affiliation over the last decade?

The stats say that the number of people identifying as Christian has declined from 71 per cent to 64 per cent during the decade from 1996 to 2006.

But Christianity is still Australia’s most dominant system of belief – with 12 point 7 million people saying they’re believers.

Meantime the number of people who say they don’t believe anything has increased to 19 per cent.

The number of Buddhists and Hindus has doubled since 1996, largely due to immigration.

The Pentecostal church is growing rapidly (26% nationwide, 48% in NSW), but Catholicism is still Australia’s single most dominant religion. (accounts for 26% of respondents who say they have a religion)

The ABS also said that the Baptist churches and eastern orthodox churches have reported strong growth.

So we’ve heard all the figures and crunched the numbers – but now I want to hear the stories behind the numbers.

I want to hear why you decided to join, and how it’s going.

Let’s put a human face on these census figures.
