Germany became a protestant country because it was the birth place of Protestantism (Martin Luther, remember?). However, a poll done by Der Spiegel magazine in 2008 revealed there are more Catholics (30%) than Protestants (29.9%) by a hairline. As they say, the death of the Catholic Church is highly exaggerated. Those with no religion (34.1%) outnumber the Catholics. I think this was brought about by the integration of East Germany into West Germany.
