Care must be taken in identifying those people who hold Christian views, compared to those who identify with Christianity as a cultural identity or for family association. An AC Neilsen poll taken in 2009 classified 50% of Australians as Christian; 5% Christian (Universal Spirit only); 3% Unsure (Christian background); 8% "Non-believer (Christian background)" - so 63% of Australians identified themselves in some way with Christianity, but only 50% were actual Christians.
Confirming a lower figure for actual believers, 49% of Australians said they believed in God, 11% believed in a "Universal Spirit" and 7% believed in both. Those who either believed in God (only) or God plus a Universal Spirit totalled 57%. These figures would presumably include Muslims and Jews.
