Historically, the Catholic religion played a very important part in politics and law. Before changes were made to the Constitution in 1994, the two top leaders of Argentina had to be Roman Catholic. Today, although officially 90% of Argentinians are Roman Catholic, fewer than 20% attend church regularly. Most go for weddings, funerals and major feast days.

Just like other "New-World" countries, Argentina culture is a mixture of very different cultures; such as European (Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, English and others) and native Argentinean.

The most common religion (and the religion recognized in the Constitution of the Republic of Argentina) is Roman Catholicism, and about three-quarters of the Argentine people are at least nominally Catholic The government subsidizes the Catholic church with payments of about four million dollars a year, representing salaries for bishops, pensions for some retired priests, and subsidies for some private schools, which are more or less Catholic.

Catholics are 76.5% of the population, 11.3% are "religiously indifferent", 9% are Protestant (with 7.0% Pentecostal), 1.2% Jehovah's Witnesses, and 0.9% Latter-Day Saints. Jews and Muslims each comprise less than 1 % of the population, but Buenos Aires has the largest Jewish population in Latin America. There are also numerous small syncretic "Andean"/indigenous/Christian/somewhat animistic religions found throughout the country.
