Hungary is a very secular country politically, although the majority of Hungarians identify themselves as Roman Catholic (approximately 50% of the population), and another 20% either as Protestant or other (or non denominational) Christian. There is a small Buddhist, Jewish and Muslim presence as well. The most rapidly growing of the minority religions is Buddhism, mostly accounted for by increasing Immigration from China and Taiwan.

However, only a minority of Hungarians who associate themselves with a religion attend religious activities regularly. Approximately 15% of Hungarians claim to have no religion.

From my experience in living in Hungary, I'd say that the typical Hungarian's religion is non-practicing Catholic or Christian--meaning that they identify with one or the other, but that is about the extent of their commitment. I'd say approximately 15% Catholics and Christians do attend church regularly and follow the laws and customs of their religion.
