Best Answer

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was founded by William Penn and originally established as a safe place for Quakers to practice their faith.

Today, approximately 50% of Pennsylvanians are Catholic, 30% mainline Protestant, 10% evangelical Protestant, 4% Jewish and 1% Muslim. There is also a significant population of Amish in Lancaster County. Quakers constitute a small minority now.
